Thanks!! =)

I suggest you do not use the E2160 CPU, It is almost the latest model, use the older model that already be sold in the market for 1 year.

another customer's post have similer issue but in Chinese language. After he change another cpu, everything work fine.

Miaolin,

I don't think I can change this hardware anymore, since I'm in Brazil now. This solution that you're suggesting is no viable! You guys should warn your costumers about this kind of issue, like put some "recommended hardware" in your site. Since there is no recommended hardware there I assume that any GOOD and FUNCTIONAL hardware must work fine.

It's not easy to find old hardware to buy in USA, but if you guys had any warn about that -- at least I could check it or buy my card from another brand.

I'm really not happy with this [no] solution. And it'll might complicate futures purchases between my company and Openvox.

Please, there is any other solution to this issue?

hello, tdurante:
sorry for that. we understand your case. the problem is that there are so many hardware with different versions or modes, we can not test all of them, i think even Digium or others also can can not to do that because kernel is very sensitive to hardware such as CPU, motherboard and harddisk. here, i give you a link, please check that:http://www.asteriskmotherboards.com/, i think it may give your some recommendations.

Hi James,

Sorry for taking so long to reply. In these chinese posts, people that were using the same processor that I'm changed to which one to solve their problems?

Do you think this is an issue that is going to be solved in the next zaptel module pack? Do you guys think it'd be a good idea to access my server and try to find out what is happening?


Thanks!
