> Hi,

> I am preparing to roll out Asterisk setup with TDM400P, 4 FXO modules in

> installed, the legacy system is still in use. The four telco lines are
> now connected in parallel both to legacy PBX and the 4 FXO modules in
> TDM400P. Asterisk is configured not to pick up any incoming calls.

>  - will the problems go away when parallel lines would be disconnected

> As you may understand the office personnel has anxiety that this may be
