I have a ASUSCOM passive card and a BRI circuit, but I can't get it to 
work.  I've tried both isdn4linux and capi.  I suspect problems with the 
card.

I couldn't find a supplier in the US so I got the card from a supplier 
in the UK.  With DSL in the UK, it's now hard to find passive cards, 
especially US compatible.  I'm reluctant to suffer the shipping costs to 
replace this card.

I'm thinking BRI for voice is a dead issue, at least here in the states.

Thoughts?
