Are you using the Asterisk / chan_ss7 as a gateway to IP-telephones or maybe through IAX to another asterisk ? The "write-buffer full" problem often occur because of jitter on the IP-net. In IP-networks, there is allways a time-delay from the time a packet is sent to it get received at another host. This delay is unfortunately not allways the same. Sometimes, the packets will arrive too slow, and sometimes they will arrive too fast. When they arrive too fast, the send-buffer is filled, chan_ss7 writes the "Write buffer full" and then drop the packets. This problem does not occur in the conventional circuit-switched telephone network, since it is completely synchronous and a dedicated (logical) circuit is reserved between the sender and receiver. To get around this problem, you can setup trafic-shaping on the network, insert a bigger buffer in chan_ss7 (which will cause more delay), to even-out the difference in time-delay. Maybe it will helpl to configure the routers to "chop up" big packets in order to get the small RTP packets going smoothly.
