Don't know if this will help - but I will butt in with what I have :-)

I've been using a Sangoma U100 adapter for about 2 years now. It is 
connected to a Compaq V2120 laptop (Celeron M 1.4GHz processor) which 
serves as my home server. It is actually the main reason I went for the 
U100 - as I couldn't add a PCI or PCIe card to a laptop to get the FXO 
ports I needed. I  have to say I really like the U100 - I believe it is 
the only low(ish) cost USB based FXO interface on the market.

I have had occasional problems with it. I remember it used to just stop 
working - and the lights would start flashing. If I remember correctly - 
I went to Sangoma's website and downloaded the latest wanpipe drivers, 
compiled and installed them - and everything was ok after that. At the 
moment I'm running Asterisk 1.6.2.9 and wanpipe 3.5.11. I can't remember 
what version of wanpipe was giving problems, I'm afraid.

I also found that mine doesn't really like to be hot-plugged - it just 
freezes the system with strange characters on the screen. But that was a 
while ago. Since I've learned it's foibles - it must be at least one 
year since I had to look at it.
