So what card you suggest to replace TE110P with ? another Single Span card of a Double / Quad or try totally different brand like Sangoma ? I see that there is a lot of documentation on Sangoma site, but would like to get opinions out here. Also, today i m facing constant problem of: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Linkset: siuc CIC 1 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 2 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 3 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 4 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 5 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 6 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 7 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 8 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 9 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 10 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 11 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 12 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 13 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 14 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 15 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 17 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 18 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 19 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 20 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 21 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 22 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 23 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 24 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 25 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 26 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 27 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 28 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 29 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 30 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware CIC 31 Idle BLOCKED Remote Hardware ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Some times all channel comes to idle mode by restarting asterisk, but at times that too doesnt work after which I have to ask the MSC managers to reset that particular E1 and everything starts working... this to me doesnt sound very good, coz NOC guys would simply get pissed off :P Anyone faced these eccentric problems with chan_ss7 ?
