color=#0000ff size=2>Agreed. Just about anything is better than one of
those X100P-type cards. They are OK for a Zaptel timing source if you want
to be able to do IAX trunking, but I would not put a phone call over the
card itself. It is nearly impossible to eliminate echo on
them.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>You need something the trixbox/asterisk will see as a generic X100P
card. I think those have a specific chipset. I have a generic card
from when i was playing with asterisk some time ago. I could probably
sell it at this point, though I warn...the sound quality isn't that
great. If I was to make a suggestion...buy an external ATA like one of
the sipura devices. I haven't had one of those myself, but I'm betting
the quality's better, and you can move it wherever you have a ethernet
line.<BR><BR>--Justin<BR><BR>
