Point taken. I was not so much point fingers but asking what my
expectation should be and maybe shedding some frustration. I don't
really have a lot of experience with this kind of communications gear
All the more reason for you to fully inform yourself *first*, and then
start posting negative drivel to a public mailing list.
B.
Fully inform myself of exactly what? Googling for TDM400P diagnostics
didn't get far and before posting I had already removed and reseated the
card and all it's connections, verified the configuration and all that.
I did all this because my background in chip and board design tells me
that a great many problems are primarily loose connections. After all
that the card was NOT responding and appeared dead. I would expect that
even a transient on the PSTN line would only blow the FXO daughter card
and not leave the PCI card itself unresponsive.
Even now, given that I don't know what caused the problem or what solved
the problem (for the time being). I might expect that powering the
system off may cause software errors due to partially written files but
I would NOT expect it to damage the hardware, particularly just a comm
card. Hence *my* feeling for *this* card is that it is unreliable. It
is however reassuring to hear that overall the reliability of the Digium
hardware is good.
