bingo! i wanted to see if i could use a 2620 i had laying around for its T1 line card and this is why i didn't expect it to be possible. the ISP here at work supplies a couple T1 lines which terminate into 1721s and i'd very much like to remove all cisco gear from the network. there are cisco 7200s as edge routers at the ISP. anybody got advice on the cheapest way to connect to such routers? the sangoma, accoom, etc. cards are pretty pricey. cheers, jake >Jeff > >[demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature which had a name of signature.asc]
