Oh, yes. When I read Chris' message I thought -- "good thing he's still got some PSTN lines." I would never, ever suggest that anybody go all VoIP. The reliability is a long way from being where it needs to be. As an adjunct, it's great, but I'd never replace PSTN service across the board. Obviously I can't speak for BT and the UK circumstance, but once the card a TDM400P card is tuned properly (which, I admit, can take some effort), the call quality is excellent. The biggest hurdle, of course, is echo, and SIP calls aren't (normally) afflicted with that because the echo cancellation is present along the entire path. -Stephen- _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
