[Asterisk-Users] Stability and motherboard questions with TE406Pand TE410P

[William Boehlke]

If you want stable use external gateways and two servers set up to fail over
to each other.
 
Second best is two two T1 cards so you have something left when one of them
fails. 
 
If you want to bet your job on a 4 T1 card, Sangoma has excellent echo
cancellation and a million hour MTBF.

So what motherboard/card combos do people use for high volume asterisk
servers that are stable?  What I'd need would be a 4-port PRI card,
preferebly with echo cancellation, and a motherboard/system that works well
with that card.

Wow, no responses in favor of either the TE406P or the TE410P w/ a
motherboard recommendation.  That's not a great sign for this endeavor. :(

Thanks,

Kyle

We're running a TE406P in an IBM xSeries 330 and while we have not had 
system stability problems (system has crashed once in six months --
gamma rays?), we are on our fourth card in about six months.

Card 1 failed outright after a couple of months

Card 2 never reliably handled DTMF unless vpmdtmfsupport was disabled 
and ran for a couple of months before it started screwing up DTMF
detection regardless of vpmdtmfsupport

Card 3 seemed to be working fine for almost a month but now the talk-off
is bad regardless of vpmdtmfsupport 

Card 4 is a newer version of the TE406 which is supposed to address the
DTMF problems -- will be shutting down our server at midnight tonight to
install the new TE406.

If Card 4 doesn't do the trick we'll probably drop the idea of using 
TE4xx boards altogether and use Patton SmartNode 2400 PRI gateways instead.
