[Asterisk-Users] Digium cards, so disappointing !

[Tony ROBIN]

I am so fed up with Digium cards. My company first owned a TE410P,
I installed it in a Dell server and "enjoyed" its instability (we
bought it months before Digium warned about the incompatibility
issues). Then we switched to a TE411P for the hardware echo
cancellation. Now we want to receive fax (< 20/day) on it and
guess what ? Since April 2006 (again a few months after we bought
our brand new card), "officially, fax communications is not
supported with Digium cards" ( http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+fax ).
Of course, I should have guessed that it is far too much to ask
to a $2495 card ! Is the "fax" extension in Asterisk just there
to push us to the competing products ?

We hesitated to buy another Digium card after the problems with
TE410P, but I told myself it was nice to support Asterisk by
buying some Digium cards. Now Digium make us regret our buys and
a disappointed customer is a lost customer forever... Too sad...
