Henry, I agree with the opinions of the replies so far, and I'll also throw in that I'm 60+ days past my Asterisk+Bell PRI+Sangoma A101D launch with no complaints of echo or poor quality. We switched from both a Meridian SL1 with PRIs and a Norstar MICS with business lines with no complaints.
Aside from some setup woes with the Sangoma card, it's been a pleasure to deal with. If you are going to go Sangoma and the new A101D card, you must use the beta drivers, you must use the correctly patched version of those beta drivers, and be careful if you are running a 64bit 4GB system. I got nailed by all of those gotchas. The good news is that the Sangoma support site & people are great. -Marc > -----Original Message----- > From: Apache [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Henry L.Coleman > Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2007 3:08 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [on-asterisk] T1 with Echo/No Echo > > Hi all, I have a client who is getting a T1 from Bell.
