[asterisk-users] Problem with "AT&T Maintenance" protocol in PRI connection, no B+D channels available

Hi guys,
   
  We are experiencing a problem with a T1 PRI connection. After trying a number of variations in the configuration files, the behavior is always the same: no B channels come up and the D channel doesn't appear to be working well. We can see there are AT&T Maintenance messages being exchanged by asterisk and the provider, CONNECT and CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE, but that doesn't appear to be enough to bring the D and B channels properly up. Are there any messages missing? When we attempt to make a call, we can see the Q.931 SETUP message being sent. But shortly after we are getting a LAPD DISC message, which ends up originating a Q.931 DISCONNECT message, terminating the call. 
   
  What could be the problem here? 
    
   Could there be any configuration issue on our side?   
   Does libpri provide complete support to the AT&T Maintenance protocol or could this connection be incompatible?
   
  Any help would be highly appreciated.
   
  Many thanks in advance,
Paulo
