If it was a bad card then I would expect it not to work on the 2811, but it does. I cannot find anything on Cisco's web site that any VWIC-1MFT-E1 modules are incompatible with 3725 routers. :/

From: ccie_voice-boun...@onlinestudylist.com [mailto:ccie_voice-boun...@onlinestudylist.com] On Behalf Of Mark Holloway Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 2:36 AM To: ccie_voice@onlinestudylist.com Subject: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] 3725 w/VWIC-1MFT-E1 trouble I'm hoping someone can chime in and help out. I'm trying to setup a 3725 as a PSTN switch. My VWIC-2MFT-T1 comes up fine but I'm having difficulty with the VWIC-1MFT-E1. With IPVOICE-12.4.18T the router sees the E1 module but displays "CONTROLLER E1 firmware not running" so I tried 12.4.23 Mainline - both Adv Enterprise and Int Voice/Video/IPIPGW and in those two cases the router doesn't even see the VWIC-1MFT-E1 but always sees the VWIC-2MFT-T1. If I insert the E1 into a 2811 it comes up every time. I am running IPVoice 12.4.22T on the 2811. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I'm stuck. :/ Thanks, Mark
