Would it be hard to code a full duplex asterisk driver? Or is it a kernel driver issue?

Anyway I did concider your suggestion and Austel rules? Seems pretty harsh since Banksia gave me a cable in the box with my modem. It's not like I'm breaking open an austel-approved device and making hardware modifications which would be understandably against the rules. Although from what I hear the Austel rules seem to be about "Systems" rather than "Hardware". Probably linux drivers for winmodems are not Austel approved. > when I posted it a year ago got in an argument with a fellow poster who > missed my point entirely till the point was lost. Are there any Australian FXO Asterisk users? What do they use? Where do they buy their hardware? cheers, Woody _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
