This is the second time you've posted this today, but it's not correct. There is no problem with *Asterisk* and these NICs, in fact it's highly unlikely that Asterisk could ever have a problem with any NIC, since it is a userspace application. What you are referring to is an incompatibility with many E1000-based NICs and *some* Digium telephony interface cards (not all, and I don't know if other manufacturers cards are affected). Please be very specific when making statements like this on mailing lists, forums, wikis, etc. Comments such as yours tend to become 'gospel' and get repeated, causing people to have incorrect assumptions and then become 'common knowledge', which is very hard to overcome :-) -- Kevin P.
