quality for us has been excellent. We have one installation using zaptel
revision 39 from SVN because in revision 38 the developers fixed a software
interrupt issue that was causing some clicking and popping. We just added
an additional installation with dual TDM400Ps using the zaptel driver from
ports (revision 52, I think) and also have had excellent call quality. You
might have to do a good bit of fiddling with the gain and echo cancellation setting
but in the end it works as expected.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Well, I managed to get a spare Cisco phone for next to nothing, so I'm
looking to set it up at home to mess around with. I don't have a PRI or
anything like that, so I'm planning on setting Asterisk up with an FXO card of
some sort.<br>
<br>
Based on parts I have kicking around already, and what I can get easily, I was
looking at this setup:<br>
- Celeron 600 w/ 256mb RAM<br>
- FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE<br>
- Digium TDM 400P with 1 FXO module<br>
- Asterisk 1.2.10<br>
- Latest zaptel-bsd from svn<br>
<br>
I've heard issues with line noise and clicking and other assorted things like
that. I see that support for the TDM400P cards is beta as well.<br>
<br>
This might be one of those 'your mileage may vary' scenarios, but I'd like to
hear what people have to say about this kind of a setup...<br>
<br>
Thanks!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
