[Asterisk-Users] BRI Newbie - What Hardware, PCI, in the US?

[Allan Gee]

My 5 cents worth is if you use Bristuff stable you must use Asterisk-1.0.10 ( Old version )
If you use Bristuff 3PRE1l you will have problems with FXO cards as I did.
Bristuff3PRE1l is not Stable use at own risk!!!

Consensus certainly seems to be the Junghanns cards are amongst the best,
but not exactly cheap. If you only need to service 2 BRIs, you might want to
look at some of the passive options. We have a number of sites here in the
UK running 2 HFC-S based cards in a box, all of which seem quite
satisfactory (no echo, etc.). Over here you can pick up HFC-S based cards
(the ones we use are these: http://www.solwise.co.uk/isdn.htm) for under
£20, so they're probably even cheaper on your side of the pond.

Chris
