hi list.

after my unsuccessfull experiences with mISDN i tried again to implement a zaphfc based solution.
problem is: sound on calls via capi is stuttering/broken and therefore unuseable.


my conf:
- cel 1300, 256mb ram
- avm b1 via capi connected to my outgoing ISDN
- acer surf pci via zaphafc and crosslink cable with termination as internal bus
- siemens gigaset 3035 as internal phone
- various sip-phones on my pc to test


software versions:
- gentoo with kernel 2.6.9
- bri-stuff.0.1.0-RC4a installed with
   cvs -z9 co -D '2004/08/21 21:34:58' asterisk libpri zaptel

all worked fine and this was the first time i could get the gigaset to talk to asterisk (in contrast to mISDN).

but ... the sound problem:
ive got stuttering noises, voice is almost not understandable in some cases - but in every case ;-(


symptoms:
- calls form gigaset to asterisk (demo,menu etc) are ok
- calls from gigaset via asterisk to pstn have stuttering
- calls from sip via asterisk to pstn are ok
- calls from pstn to asterisk (demo, menu etc) have stuttering
- calls from pstn via asterisk to gigaset have stuttering
- calls from pstn via asterisk to sip are ok

what me stikes here is that you cant find a definitive suspect here.
zaphfc itself seems to be ok - demo and menu sound are ok and otoh i get problems when zaphfc is out of the game - like calling asterisk alone from pstn.
but capi itself works - at least when i use sip to call out.
ive got to stop scratching my head about this before i loose to much hair ...


i googled around and found no solution. what i tried:
- the hdparm thing
- switching apci/acpi
- changing resitors for termination of the internal bus (100/50 ohms) or remove termination completely


one thing that makes me curious are interrupts:

there was no activity on the system and zaphfc produces interrupts like crazy. i found one post describing the same thing - but the thread concludes without solution ...

someone got ideas ?

or maybe i could try another approach:
has anyone got a similar working configuration (isdn external & internal via capi and/or zaphfc and/or mISDN) ?
which hardware / software do it run on ?


wbr.tja...
