[asterisk-users] Dropped calls when all DAHDI lines in use

[John Novack SCII_U]

Have you given any thought to moving to at least a current supported version 13?
Asterisk 11 has been EOL for some time now
I doubt you will get a resolution to a version no longer supported.
Moving to the latest version 13 should be relatively quick and painless, and if the issue persists you might find more assistance.
