| ManxPower | Maybe the people that help most on #asterisk should just put people on /ignore that ask questions that are not on topic danp: only a small part of my consulting practice is telecom related |
| mrdigital | [TK]D-Fender: do you recommend any $20-100 FXO/FXS Cards or adapters? |
| [TK]D-Fender | ManxPower, I haven't yet reached your level of BOFH-ness yet.... ;) |
| danp | ManxPower: again, same :P i'd like to do more, though |
| [TK]D-Fender | mrdigital, depends how many ports, and if thats a cost/port figure. |
| danp | i find it pretty fascinating |
| aptura | Manx get any kind of residual income from it? |
| mrdigital | 2 lines |
| [TK]D-Fender | mrdigital, I typically suggest Linksys for small stuff, and Mediatrix/audioCodes for the bigger implementations |
| mrdigital | linksys hmmm which linksys ata you recommend? |
| ManxPower | aptura: I have two regular clients, they always want some sort of changes that are more than their onsite person can do |
| [TK]D-Fender | mrdigital, As always it depends on your NEEDS. |
| ManxPower | aptura: I've been a consultant for my largest customer for almost 11 years |
| danp | i've been pretty happy with the pap2 but i'm just using it for testing at the moment |
| mrdigital | well i need a cheap way to get 2 PSTN lines into asterisk |
| [TK]D-Fender | ~ygwypf |
| ManxPower | I stick with T-1 cards, Adtran TS750 channel banks, Tellabs EC, Polycom phones, and PRI lines |
| aptura | Manx thats really good track record |
| jbot_ | ygwypf is probably You Get What You Pay For. If the sole factor in your decision to purchase a product or service is that it's cheaper than everything else out there, don't be surprised if it's also worse in every other respect than everything else out there. |
| mrdigital | ?? |
| danp | ManxPower: is that adtran model number right? i don't get much from google |
| ManxPower | aptura: I've been with my 2nd client for something between 3 and 5 years, I don't recall exactly. |
| brian | Okay so why isn't * listening to telephone events from my SIP to SIP call :( |
| ManxPower | the other 2 or 3 occasional customers I've been doing consulting for for at least 13 years |
| brian | I'm just trying to test using SIP to SIP and it's not working :( |
| ManxPower | I'm open to accepting new clients, if their needs are a good match for my skills |
| danp | TA750 maybe |
| action | Nugget hires ManxPower to set up a 100 station asterisk system consisting of grandstream phones and clone x100p cards. |

| ManxPower | Total Access 750 |
| danp | yeah, got it. thanks |
| brian | ManxPower: why would DTMF not work on a sip to sip call if both clients are using the same dtmf mode? |
| Qwell | Nugget: $80k Nugget: I'll do it |
| ManxPower | Nugget: I'm sorry, but you have failed the customer interview. |
| danp | i'm using rhino cb24's and they seem pretty cool |
| [TK]D-Fender | brian, what DHOUL it be listening for? typically # just steps out of the way on a normal bridged call |
