While at this subject I would like to post this question regarding ADSI. If I use a channel bank (like the Adit 600) with a digium T1/E1 card connected to asterisk, can I still get to use ADSI phones? with all the fun stuff? If the answer is yes, if I go ahead and configure the Adit 600 to use a CMG card for the FXS cards, will I still be able to use ADSI? Thank You.
