Hello!
I'm testing out some Asterisk solutions for replacing a PBX, but before I buy an expensive FXO card, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get those winmodems that apparently work with Asterisk locally?
You should be able to pick up a test FXO/FXS card for about $129. I just don't see the winmodem as being a good way to "test" Asterisk. We do a lot of Asterisk installations. If you ask here whether Asterisk can do what you want, I am sure we could give you a valid answer.
Buying a winmodem would just be throwing away money. Analog lines with quality cards have fairly significant echo issues that need fine tuning as it is. I suspect a winmodem would be nothing but frustration. Just my two cents.
