Why stop there? Why not have all analog cards configure to channels in the 1-999 range, and all digital cards configure to channels above 1000? Then, there's never a conflict. modprobe wctdm slot=0x3 basechannel=46 modprobe wc4xxp slot=0xb basechannel=2032 -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
