[Asterisk-Users] Digium Hardware Reliability

[Philippe Lindheimer]

Andrew,

you seem to be assuming a lot. These were spread out across different parts of the country (US), on projects I was involved with but deployed by more than compentent telco and engineering colleagues of mine. And ... in the majority of the cases, they were DOA (not a transient issue, noisy line or not). The warranty is there and Digium or their resellers make good - but the delays in the project and the lossed time are still real. Once working, they do seem to continue working fine.

So ... don't try to read too much into it. That is why I am very interested in seeing what others are finding.

Then put proper telco line protection in place!  Good lord, it's blindingly 
obvious to me that you seem to be in a particularly harsh environment and 
that the protection on the FXO modules was not designed for the type of 
transient disturbances you're experiencing.
