One bug I found on my GS ATA adapter.
I had it pointing to my * server for ntp.
I did not have ntpd running.
You could start a call, but during the call it would
do a ntp request.  The server was sending an ICMP message
back and then the adapter would terminate the call.
I fired up ntpd and all is well.
