You'll need two X100Ps to interface with the external phone lines. You will also probably need a TDM400P with at least 1 module installed, unless you plan to use your system only as an answering machine (i.e. no place to connect a telephone handset). That will run you $325-$505, depending on how many handset modules you buy. At the upper end, it's fairly close to the price of a T100P plus a fleabay channel bank (which can be had for $75-$150). With such an arrangement, you can have many more telephone handsets. You'd still need to make sure that you got a channel bank with FXO ports, otherwise you'd still need the X100Ps ($200) for the two lines coming into your house. -Tilghman _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
