HPS As some might remember, I've setup my Asterisk on a FreeBSD 6.1-RELENG box with the i4b from HPS, including the chan_capi (AVM Fritz) and Asterisk from the ports collection, runs well. I'm now planning on upgrading a bit. For one I'd like to move to the 6.2-RELENG branch. I quess the save way to do this is to de-install i4b, do the cvsup to 6.2-RELENG and get that running without i4b and then do a fresh install after an svn update with the current version. If anybody sees any pitfalls with that, please tell me! Now to the more important question. Can anybody recommend me a multi port BRI card for this combo of software. It needs to support at least one, better two S0 in NT mode and one as TE connected to a DDI S0 from our local telco NT1. I've seen the thread about the Digium D410P(€635) and spotted the BN4S0 from Beronet (€450) , Junghanns.net has a quadBRI 2.0 as well. All prices in Euros excl. VAT on voipango.de. In addition, I think I need a power supply for the NT-Mode S0, the beronet one is around €82. At the moment, I'm in favor of the Beronet card, as it's quite a difference to the Digium one. Does that sound reasonable to you? And, does it work? -- Oliver
