silence after pickup with my new AVM Fritz!Card version 2 PCI

Hello, I have bought new ISDN card for my FreeBSD Asterisk.

My problem is that there is no audio when I pickup a call on
both ends.

My card:

[rootasterisk /usr/local/etc/asterisk]# isdnconfig -u 0
controller 0 = {

capitest -u 0 -o valid_number works fine, my cellphone
rings. Incoming
calls show up in asterisk and isdndecode - but when I pickup
I hear no
audio on both ends. Just some noise when I talk.
I have tried different driver_type's, no success. 

capi.conf:

[general]
nationalprefix=0
internationalprefix=00
rxgain=2
txgain=2
debug=no

[ISDN]
isdnmode=msn
msn=717817630

controller=0
group=1
softdtmf=off
relaxdtmf=off
accountcode=

holdtype=local
echocancel=no
echosquelch=no
devices=2

Any ideas?

Asterisk 1.4.7.1  FreeBSD 6.2 I'm compiling 1.4.10 from
ports now, and
will recompile chan_capi

No change after asterisk and chan_capi (from SVN) upgrade.

I had never any success in getting a FritzCard running on
FreeBSD.
I bought a HFC card on ebay for 15 EUR, it works perfectly
with the driver:

I had HFC card working, but it burned along with 3
computers.

Dammit, I need to install Linux ?

oh ok thats bad...

> Dammit, I need to install Linux ?

hm, I am not sure if that helps you. I friend of mine
replaced his Linux
PC now  with FreeBSD and everything works fine, with Linux
he has only
problems...

It seems to me that the Fritz Card was never designed to use
voice with it.

Best regards,
Matthias

Actually we had a very funny day in my company when
computers started to
burn as I was testing this card, mobo was being burned when
a call was
coming over ISDN line

But did your friend managed to get hist Fritz Card working
in his
Linux/BSD box?

There is Win* software for voice included and HPS lists on
his page
that this card is supported. Quoting
http://ww
w.turbocat.net/~hselasky/isdn4bsd/ 

ISAC - based devices (all should work)

    * Asuscom ISDNlink 128K ISA
    * AVM A1
    * AVM Fritz!Card
    * AVM Fritz!Card PnP
    * AVM Fritz!Card PCI
    * AVM Fritz!Card PCI version 2 

[...]

Please let me know if anybody had success with this card.
TIA

I had, I think 2 years ago Hans on the phone and we both
tried to get
the FritzCard working. We got the card working but the
quality was
extremely bad and we gave up. I bought then 2 HFC cards
(1xTE, 1xNT
mode). Then I never tried it with the FritzCard, sry.

But if anyone here on the list success with a FritzCard
please inform me
too.

Best regards,
Matthias

Hi Jakub,

Send an e-mail to the chip-designer, AVM, and ask them to
provide me with the 
full documentation of their chips, and I will gladly fix
those last issues. 
Until now they have been completely unfriendly.

The reason AVM Fritz!Card version 2 PCI is supported is that
it works until a 
certain revision of the card, and then you only get garbage
in the one 
direction on the B-channel. Fortunately they use some
standard chips on the 
D-channel, so at least the D-channel is fully functional and
supported.

Maybe I should remove support for these cards ?

imo you should, the behavior of AVM and more important, and
buggy
working ISDN adapter (which worked with windows as data
adapter) falls
usually back to the OS / PBX software and not to the adapter
or the
company.

Oliver

Hi Oliver,

I have now added a note to my webpage that this version of
the AVM Fritz card 
does not work. Also I have added the words
"recommended" and "not 
recommended" to the different ISDN device categories.

Currently, from the list of supported chips, I only
recommend chips compatible 
with the ones from Colognechip.

I hope that will lead people away from buying those other
ISDN cards for new 
projects.

I have good and bad news. The good is, after many hours of
frustration
I've managed to set up my AVM card with asterisk with
working audio.
The bad news is - under Linoox (mISDN + chan_capi). It was
quite a PITA.

Hans, is it possible to hack mISDN code and see why i4b has
audio
problems? I'm setting my pbx under Linux, but I would like
to get back
to BSD as soon as possible.

TIA

Could you locate the AVM driver file(s) in the mISDN
distribution ?
