Did you actually get Asterisk running on it?

Are there free drivers for the wireless innterface (so you won't depend
on the specific kernel version)? 

You can't simply use the existing zaptel drivers, as the adapters don't
even sit on a PCI bus. If the slics are indeed the same ProSlics used by
the TDM400P, it could help. But some driver rewriting would probably be
needed.

Are there any existing free drivers that use those adapters?
