Your PRI and the T1 itself cannot introduce echo on their own. What you may see though is that you are introducing a delay as you traverse the asterisk link. Asterisk will buffer 8 bits per channel from the PRI before it send it down the T1 line to the PBX. This is a new delay that is now added on to the latency your PBX introduces. A guess is that you also get the 2 machines fighting against each other on the echo. I doubt you can turn off echo cancel in the PBX so you should try turning it off in asterisk. It should help reduce some latency in asterisk and let the PBX handle the rest of the echo cancel on it's own. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
