I wanted to implement a project like this:

PSTN/E1(PRI/GSM) Bluetower Gateway1/Asterisk Server/E1ALCATEL 4200

I spent 4 days trying to make it with Trixbox (I wished it works with trixbox because of the number of features bundled with it) but all I got working was having the LEDs on the two E1/T1 cards turn green.

All seemed to be ok, but i couldn't pass calls from pstn to Trixbox nor from Alcatel 4200 to Trixbox.

I finally took another HDD (because I want to later debug the probe with trixbox in the first HDD) and downloaded AsteriskNOW (it took almost 2 hours) then i burned it on a CD (10 min) and i installed it on the new HDD (45 to 50 min).
