Happily, this would not appear to be entirely the case. Yes, the Dr. Neuhaus board support is out of date (though I have updates to all of this from Juergen which some ISDN folks were provided with) but a number of people in Europe are currently working on the `next generation' support for ISDN, and it looks promising, at least. > 3) Get a TA like a Bitsurfr/Adtran etc. That's what I'm currently doing, anyway. > Is anyone working on drivers for the low cost PC plug-n-play ISDN boards > from Digiboard or Livingston? Digiboard keeps claiming to be interested, and I've talked with the manager of the communications group a couple of times, but the people she keeps pointing me at are basically unreachable! :-( Would you perhaps care to try your hand at it? :-) I don't have any contacts at Livingston, but I'd welcome some names and numbers. Suffice it to say that interest in ISDN is quite active, we're just suffering from a shortage of boards and specs. Jordan
