This is what I am doing. I won't have BB for another week so have been
running the ISDN portion.
Out of the box, the brand new unit only just about worked on ISDN, for
a few seconds before losing the connection - both when the PC was via
ethernet or wifi.
After numerous calls with their (very helpful) tech supp man, I
downloaded new firmware from their website. This has *nearly* fixed
the problem; now it runs for a good few minutes before packing up. The
funny thing is that it packs up on a particular IE6 download session
for example, and then if one starts up another copy of IE6, that one
works fine for another period of time. It is as if it was losing sync
somewhere...
Also I don't think multilink (128k) works at all.
I don't suppose the ISDN portion of the product gets tested often,
possibly never, which is why they can sell it in this condition...
The Cisco 803 is rock solid, in the same ISDN socket, working for
years without a reboot or any glitches.
I know one can have an ISDN backup for BB in different ways (keep the
old Cisco one and just change over the gateway IP in the network PCs,
for example) but I went for the 2900Gi to get a one-box solution.
Peter.
