[Asterisk-Users] FXS or VOIP

Asterisk installs are like snowflakes (this is the beauty of it). There are
so many variables involved that each unique set of circumstances on the
install site has direct bearing on the appropriateness of the technology
used. You have to make an evaluation as to whether the technology you want
to use is appropriate in the install context. For example, in an old
building with crappy wiring and dodgy power, FXS is probably more
appropriate. If you are in the sticks and you can't get broadband or PRI,
FXO and FXS is the appropriate choice.
