Hi, I'm running a TDM400P with 2xFXS and 1xFXO on an AMD64 dual-core machine (Nvidia chipset motherboard) running in i386 mode on FreeBSD 6.2. I had been experiencing intermittent problems with the TDM400 setup. The old problem I used to see was that channel 2 (2nd FXS) would have battery but no dialtone, and channel 4 (FXO) would be able to place outbound calls, but would miss incoming rings/callerid and not pickup. Channel 1 (FXS) would work just fine. This used to happen every few weeks. Recently, it was happening every few days, before the new problem cropped up...
Today, my wife reported an even weirder problem: any attempts to use the FXO would result in really loud static/noise after the FXS was joined to the FXO, and a the outbound dialing did not occur. I checked, and the analog line works perfectly. Here's what I've tried: - I tried a power cycle. Same problem. - I upgraded the zaptel driver to the latest port (1.4.6) and asterisk. Same problem. - I upgraded asterisk. Same problem. Unfortunately, I can't recall what previous port versions I had installed, but they weren't very old, and the first problem persisted through several versions of the ports for both asterisk and the zaptel driver. I now have: # Installed ports asterisk-1.4.9_1 An Open Source PBX and telephony toolkit zaptel-1.4.6_2 A FreeBSD Driver for FXO, FXS, BRI and PRI Telephony Cards asterisk-addons-1.4.2 GPL modules for the Asterisk Open Source PBX # uname -imrs FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p6 i386 GENERIC # zfcfg Keyword: [fxoks], Value: [1-2] Keyword: [fxsks], Value: [4] Keyword: [loadzone], Value: [us] Keyword: [defaultzone], Value: [us] Additionally, I have the following /usr/local/etc/asterisk/ zapata.conf for the FXO: context=incoming rxgain=1.0 txgain=1.0 signalling=fxs_ks ringtimeout=8000 immediate=no callprogress=yes busydetect=yes busycount=6 echocancel=yes echocancelwhenbridged=yes echotraining=yes channel => 4 I also tried: context=incoming rxgain=1.0 txgain=1.0 signalling=fxs_ks ringtimeout=8000 immediate=no echocancel=yes channel => 4 and the static/noise was even louder.
