AW: asterisk 1.11 and chan_misdn

It's still a hassle to get mISDN running in a new environment. (Kernel > 3.x.x) Meanwhile the guys from Digium add BRI-ISDN support to their dahdi driver and it runs quite well in the latest versions. They also added support for foreign HFC-S cards so you can get foreign cards like ones from openvox running quite easily. 

So if you don't need the low level mISDN interfaces as you only use asterisk you can use dahdi and counter a possible heart attack by trying to get mISDN running :)

On the other hand the dahdi drivers are performance pigs as they heavily use IRQs and you can get problems with your hardware because of that.

Only my 2 cent.

I would assume yes.

They should work.

lcr works with them (at least, for me)
