[Asterisk-Users] Can One FXO Support Multiple Phone Lines?

[Andrew Berman]

I meant two lines, my bad.  Two lines = two numbers.  In other words, I
could've had two lines via one wire plugged into the FXO port.  So, it
sounds like that is not possible which is what I thought.

Thank you for your help,

Andrew
