Anton, Paul, Joseph, Thanks for your assistance and suggestions to date. Based on the information you provided, I think I may have narrowed the source ot the problem down the the timing source. I have my end of the link set as NORMAL in the Sangoma config and Zaptel config. This is obvious for me in a Q931/PRI context but I'm not sure how signalling works on an SS7 context. Is SS7 similar to PRI in that I need a master timing source? Can I ask you folks how you have set up you timing? My Zaptel config is: #Sangoma A108 port 1 [slot:4 bus:13 span:1] <wanpipe1> span=1,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4 bchan=1-31 And the wanpipe1.conf is below.
