[asterisk-users] Digium Zaptel volume issues

[Charles K Green]

Is there a preferred card/capability that doesn't have the TDM400P
limitations?

Lots of experience with it.

I recently learned that a fixed loss is statically defined in the 
drivers for the card. The loss has been there since the card first came 
out and it is supposedly required to make the s/w EC function.

The low audio issue is a common problem for all users, but it becomes 
far more noticeable for those that use the card on long pstn analog 
loops.  In other words, the greater the pstn loss, the lower the audio 
level, and increasing rxgain/txgain cannot be used to compensate for it.

No fix or workaround.
