[Asterisk-bsd] Zaptel X100P card dropping calls

[Kirk Davis]

Hmmm...  I'm not sure where to go from here then.

I removed all unneeded hardware from the system and also made sure the X100P
card was locked down to it's own interrupt. I cvs'ed up my FreeBSD to the
latest 5.3 (I'm waiting until 5.4 is out of RC status) and rebuilt the
asterisk and zaptel ports.

The only thing I have added from the stock install was to create the
/usr/local/etc/zaptel.conf file as follows:

# Span 1: WCFXO/0 "Generic Clone Board 1" 
fxsks=1
# Global data
loadzone        = us
defaultzone     = us

I also changed the default /usr/local/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf.  I changed
the signalling to signalling=fxs_ks and added channel => 1 at the end.

If I don't run asterisk it will not pick up the call, just rings. When I run
asterisk it will answer the call after the third ring but then just drops
the call right away but asterisk doesn't detect the dropped call and
continues to go though it's Background tasks.

I'm stuck now and will even accept and wild guesses ;-)

Hi,

I run 5.3-STABLE with an XP clone and the ported versions of the required 
software. Touch wood, so far I've been really happy with the results. Are 
you sure its not an interrupt problem? I've seen hardware clashes do funny 
things to theses cards.
