I'm using software echo cancellation. ztcfg says its MG2. In zapata.conf I have echocancel=64 and echotraining=256 set. I'm going to try Digium's hpec. I've did an online request for the free licenses, I'm using Digium TDM400 and TDM800 series cards, yesterday and am waiting to hear back. <br>

</div></div>Ok, I looked at the output of you running fxotune. Basically, the lines<br>
that have numbers in them besides 0 (after the first two terms x=y,...)<br>
are the complex line simulation line models. The output you gave me<br>
demonstrated that they gave the best return loss characteristics using<br>
the built in test frequencies.<br>
<br>
It's possible that your setup is not performing well with these line<br>
models, which is why you might notice less echo using the second set of<br>
settings you listed above. Which echo canceller are you using with<br>
this, by the way? (Hardware, software, if software, which software echo<br>
canceller).<br>
