Any suggestions?

For FXO interface the Offhook/Onhook state is irrelevant. That status is 
for FXS interfaces only. (Please read comment on zap channel  command).

1 - the FXO goes the PSTN and not to the phone.
2- in zaptel and zapta conf files beware that the signalling is 
reveresed which is somewhat confusing. Look at the documentation on the 
digium website

Are you sure you're using the correct cable to plug the FXO into the POTS?

It sounds to me like maybe you've got a crossed cable where you need a 
straight one, or vice versa - there are certainly plenty of variations in 
cables from different vendors, for different bits of equipment, in different 
countries, so maybe you just need to try another one?

There should basically only be two types - line signals on pins 1-4, or on 
2-3, so there shouldn't be too much to test...

Hope this helps,

Antony.
