Eric,
I don't know of any in the grandstream price range. The Cisco stuff
(186) and the adtran gear are very rock solid but pricey; linksys
(rebranded sipura Atas are more affordable for soho use pricewise and
are quite stable as well)

Clint,
Speaking of SIP gateways...do you have any that you recommend? I use
the Grandstream GXW4104, and it is fairly cheap. I know there has
to be
a good one out there. I have issues with it hanging up calls randomly
(especially if I am on hold), echo cancellation, and several other
little quirks. Definitely not something that you would want to put
in a
non-technical environment, completely un-managed. With us, we are IT
guys so it gets us by; but if I would deploy this to a customer...NO
WAY!!!

I'd recommend actually just getting an external SIP ATA for starters
(basically the same idea, but in an external network device that you
connect
to over the LAN via SIP. Asterisk can be quite randomly finicky about
hardware sometimes and there's a lot of motherboard chipsets out there
that
Asterisk does not deal well with. This usually manifests itself in
terms of
lockups when dealing with POTS or TDM cards...
Also, POTS cards are pretty worthless to you if you aren't doing
Asterisk; a
SIP ATA can be useful elsewhere.

Well, Adam, you weren't far off. The "Buy it now" eBay 1-FXO PCI
card
prices are around $20 and I've gotten auctions for just over $10 per
card so
I accepted your $8 as the price of winning a fortuitous auction.
Reputable stores have it typically for a bit more, around $29. It's
all
in
the noise.

I'm sorry, I mixed up the terminology while typing. The $8 cards on
eBay
are regular POTS.

Thanks Adam. FXO is foreign exchange, correct? At the office, I
only
have
regular POTS lines. Will something work with them, or do I have to
have
FXO
lines? At our POP, I have trunk side T1's that are being used for
dial-up...but I am not wanting to hook to those yet.

There are several cards available on ebay for roughly $8 each. They
will
let you plug in multiple incoming lines (FXO signalling) to toy
around
with.

Hey All,
I am wanting to install Asterisk on a server to play around with.
Can
anyone tell me if there is a card that I can hook a couple of POTS
lines into just to try it out? Or will I have to get a digital
card?
Not wanting to pour major $$$$ into this until I have learned a
little
about it. TIA.
