[Asterisk-Users] FXS or VOIP

[Wiley Siler]

The consensus is usually a big NO though some have made more than 2
cards work.

I ran my system with 2 four port TDM cards and it worked fine.  Others
have had nothing but problems.
This has to do with IRQs and the PCI bus if memory serves. A quick
search should yield info on IRQ and TDM cards.

Cheers,
W

Whoa, I'm confused.  Can't you use as many cards as you have slots? 
We've got just one 4-port card, but I've always assumed it was just a 
matter of purchasing and installing more to get 8 or 12 lines?
