Very similar to what I have. Also Flowroute for outgoing but others and a TDM400 for incoming. Since upgrading to 1.6.2 from 1.2.28 or so and figuring out DAAHDI and HPEC on the new version there have been no echo issues at all. Also cable modem but only the slow version. There is a Linksys router between the Asterisk box and the cable modem. Usually VOIP echo is the other end. There should be no way other than having the volume on your SIP phones way too high to get local echo. In the past it's been suggested on inexpensive phones with this problem to take apart the handset and make sure the path from the speaker to microphone is blocked or filled with sound insulation. I'm using Aastra 480i phones and that's never been a problem.
