Okay, sorry to hash out this discussion again, but it's starting to drive me crazy
Successfully got the adapters to allow the BT phones to ring on lines coming out of a TDM.......... but now my latest problem is echo. I have done tweaking of the gains in North and South America, and after a bit of work have gotten echo to go away, but this seems to just not want to go away. On an incoming call from the POTS, everything on my end sounds perfect, but on the internal extension phone, there is an echo when you speak. An almost perfect copy of what you say. If I turn down the gains on that channel, it doesn't seem to do much, or causes other volume issues. Help! In my research and hunting, I am starting to worry that the US-bought digium cards have IMPEDENCE issues in the UK with the BT Lines etc? That would seem to explain why the echo is so incessant. I have even tried changing Echo Cancellers to MARK3. Right, this is Asterisk 1.0.9, Zaptel 1.0.9.2 on Debian Suggestions / Experiences in UK appreciated -- Chris Earle System Solutions Specialist, ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Novack" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: gmane.comp.telephony.pbx.asterisk.user Sent: Wednesday, August 24, 2005 10:03 AM Subject: Re: Connection TDM400P to UK PSTN > The jacks on the TDM are ( incorrectly ) referred to as RJ45, correctly > they are 8 position modular. > The line, either in or out is on the two CENTER pins.
