Yes you should be able to do that with an E-1 (it's called "DACS"). HOWEVER, you can't do DACS on a PRI, as you would need the D-Channel replicated and you can't do that. If you just want Asterisk to provide PRIs to your users, then that's a different story. Hans Witvliet wrote: > Before tryin

The "something" is generated by Asterisk at the time the call is created. You should never add it, since you don't control that call instance info. In fact, you should almost never care about the call instance string. The -1 means "first instance of a call on this channel", a -2 would be see

Make the card stop sharing it's IRQ with your IDE controller. Try moving the card to another slot. Asterisk has to send an audio packet every 20ms for VoIP calls. I believe Zaptel expects no more than a few ms of latency. If something is causing a delay, like the IDE controller locking inter
