Most problems with TDM400 cards seem to stem from power supply. That is why there is a power plug on the card to get more power into the card to support the phone signalling. You may have had a small power brown out and it caused your power supply to drop below what the card was happy with. Make sure you have a quality power supply in the computer that has plenty of surplus wattage. Then make sure your machine is on a UPS to make sure the power supply has enough clean power to serve your needs. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
