[asterisk-users] Please Advice on Best High traffic fxo gateway/cards

[James Mutuku]

Hi,

Probably I did not explain my situation before asking the question.
I have been working with epygi fxo gateways(www.epygi.com) for some 
time. They are 6 port fxo gateways, but they fail("hang") when it comes 
to high traffic on the 6 POTS, resulting to not-so-happy clients. In my 
country, the main telco operator does not follow any "standards".  
Different lines(POTs) from the same telco might have different 
"disconnect settings*". With the epygi fxo gateways, you can only set a 
system wide disconnect settings, not for individual lines(POTs). What 
happens is when you configure the disconnect settings from one of the 
lines, you get "disconnect problems(call never disconnects with time, 
the whole system "hangs")".

*disconnect settings - (the way I understand the term)frequency values 
that enable an fxo gw to detect the "call disconnection" from the line(POT).
