I felt some pangs of guilt turning all that stuff off, but I couldn't think of any time I'd want two dialplans in series. > The box was truly targeted for the residential user where existing > phones interface on one side, the pstn line on the other side, and > the default call is sent to the voip interface.

I think the cut-through from the fxs to the fxo (and backwards) is via a digital connection. In normal use you appear to end up getting hit by the digitization delays. As far as I can tell the relay cut-through is only used for power failure. > Initial tests did not show any signs of echo, very good volume and > audio quality, and would probably be a good choice for small quantities > of pstn lines (particularily soho and residential users). I still notice some low-volume problems with FXO->asterisk->grandstream-bt101 even though I bumped the FXO incoming (and outgoing) gains to +12dB. (To keep calls from the FXO->asterisk->FXS a reasonable volume I needed to drop the gain of the fxs port to -15 (from the factory of -3). Somebody with a real phone VU meter needs to have a look at the Sipura-3000 FXO. I can't believe it is off that much. Might the Grandstream BT-101 be really low in volume and I'm just mistakenly blaming the volume problem on the Sipura? > The only downside I've seen thus far (not much experience as yet) is > that * calls to the pstn line are cut through immediately, so one > hears the initial dialtone from the pstn and the sending of the dtmf > tones on all outgoing calls.

Given the choice between hearing dead air and hearing the tones, I think I'd rather hear the tones. At least I know something is happening. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
