I won't be much help because I am just a couple of steps ahead of you, but I will try. It looks like there are not many people in the U.S. using BRI. Because it is so unpopular here, there are not many cards available that work. The key to getting a card that "might" work here, is if the card supports the NI-1 protocol. Most cards that do support it are active cards like the Eicon Diva Server, and are not cheap. There are a few cheap passive cards that support NI-1, but I don't know if they work.
Another problem with most of the cards that do work, is that they don't have a U interface, so you need to buy an external NT1, which will give you the required U interface. There is a company in Austalia that makes a card that does NI-1 and has a U interface, but I don't know if anyone has used it. The url for their card is: http://www.traverse.com.au/productview.do?product_id=14
I just picked up a cheap Dynalink card on ebay which I am going to try on Monday, when I can plug it into a BRI line. I am not holding my breath though.
My suggestion is to get a more expensive, active BRI card, and see if it works. If you have any luck, please let me know.

Does anyone have a working ISDN BRI interface in the US? Does the fax work?
Thanks,
