[Freeswitch-users] [Out of curiosity] Why not use a voice modem for FXO?

You would experience a lot of echo and other problems and the time you spent
working on it would
be better spent doing something more meaningful and using the money you
received to buy a real TDM card or
better still, a FXO->SIP ATA.
