Is it bridging the Zap channels? We have asterisk doing FXO-FXS modem calls working fine, the key is making sure the channels are bridging and EC is NOT turning on. If you have anything preventing that the modem calls won't work.

I don't know if that is the case with a regular modem call. I'd check to make sure that echo cancellation is disabled on the extension the modem is plugged into. The only other idea is to try connecting at a lower speed (I would think this would happen automatically though). -Dave _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users This e-mail, facsimile, or letter and any files or attachments transmitted with it contains information that is confidential and privileged.
