Matt,

You know I'll be following this thread!

Found a good reference for G3 isdn-pri you should
have a look. Go's into good detail, more then the
stock implementation manuals do.

I noticed you said you where going to use a TN767(E) circuit pack, did you?

Depending on your system(version) you might have to use TN464 for ISDN-PRI

It's questionable as to weither you can use a TN767 for ISDN-PRI w/FAS
Some systems you can, others you can not.
You might need to install a packet adjunct TN555

Are you sure your D channel is up?
It's seems the TN767 is mostly used as ISDN-PRI w/NFAS.

Anyhow just a thought, cause that's where I'm at right now
is trying to figure out which circuit pack I need to use.
