[Asterisk-Users] zaphfc 2 cards working with P2P Mode ?? - massive Problems

[Michael Sandee]

I have several machines operating nicely on P2P ISDN lines with 
QuadBRI's, which uses the same layer2 code...
ZapHFC's seem to give a lot of trouble on certain hardware... try using 
a different machine to host both cards in.

Kind regards,

Michael
