[asterisk-users] Fritz! Card/CAPI Help.

[Michael (qq12345)]

Hi,

we started with HFC cards and were upset, how many patches we had to
introduce in the source.

Then we found mISDN and we are operating an AVM Fritz-Card and an  HFC card
out of the box
via mISDN  interface. No change at asterisk's code was necessary.

Hope, this helps,
Michael
