Why do FXO cards generate echo issues while ATA don't? For instance, there
are a lot of people complaining about echo with the Linksys 3102.

Actually, that's why I prefer to use a PCI card instead of an ATA: No need
for a transformer and a cable to connect the ATA to the Freeswitch server,
and only one cable left to connect the PCI card to the wall plug. With
non-techie customers, it seems like a safer solution.
