I'm not sure _exactly_ what you mean...but wouldn't it be simpler just to use two modems to tie each lan together - maybe even have the modems in the Asterisk box and then use standard linux stuff to do the routing of the packets - no asterisk _needs_ to be involved - the packets could be iax trunks or whatever, but the actual bridging of the the lans doesn't need asterisk, just two modems and a NIC in the server on either end. Something like this: (IP LAN1)<->LINUX+MODEM<---->(PSTN)<---->LINUX+MODEM<->(IP LAN2) And on LAN1 or LAN2 could be an Asterisk server, or a web server, or whatever - the linux servers with the modems just do standard routing... At least, i think thats what your asking.. -josiah -- Josiah Bryan IT Coordinator Productive Concepts, Inc.
