[asterisk-users] Cisco router

[Peder]

The lowest end that you can use are 2600, 2600xm, 2800 or 3600.  Then like a
previous poster said, you need the DSP's and T1/E1 modules, but not all of
them support it.  NM-HDV2-2T1/E1 are relatively cheap, but you need to make
sure that it actually has the t1/ei VWIC in it and it has DSP's in it as
well.  Some people sell the NM with nothing in it and that is useless.

Thanks for the info. I didn't have any model in mind, just wondering
what was required.

Thanks again, much appreciated.
