[asterisk-users] North American voice BRI - Informal survey

[Jon Pounder]

Quoting Joe Greco <jgreco at ns.sol.net>:

I've been in contact with a guy on ebay selling 4 port bri cards who  
supplies a patched version of the driver that works with north  
american signalling.

my suggestion would be for someone to just take the plunge and see if  
it actually works properly and then provide the rest of us some  
feedback.

There is absolutely no point in reinventing the wheel when the guy has  
reasonably priced cards and software which already works.
