A standard Cat5 ethernet cable won't work, but a T1/E1 crossover cable made from Cat5 should work just fine. I do this all the time with T1/PRI, I don't see why it wouldn't work with E1/PRI. One side is set up as pri_cpe, and hte other as pri_net. -A. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
