Hi there am having an issue with digital modems disconnecting on a cisco 2811. The router has PVDM2-36DM card and hwic-1ce1t1-pri E1 interface installed.
The E1 is up and I can dialout but the calls drop after 24-30 secs.
I have issued the debug modem csm and the following output is shown.
ebug modem s csm
Modem Management Call Switching Module debugging is on

What stands out is the following line 'modem not found due to wrong b channel number or b channel is deallocated'
I have attached the full config and in it I have configured the time-slots 1-12,16 This is because the organisation does not have the full E1 but only first 12 channels 16 is the d channel.
Any assistance would be much appreciated
Thanks

network-clock-select 1 e1 0/0/0
That should solve your issue.

Hello folks,
I have found the problem.It seems that the software being used on the server to dial out to the remote devices required a modem initialisation string.
We tested dialing out with a normal windows dialup connection and this work perfectly.

Unless you configure the command indicated above, the E1 controller will encounter slips (you can check by yourself) and the modem connection will suffer.

Thanks p.bevilacqua,
I will add that line of config in as well and see how the testing goes over the next week.
Cheers,
Marc

I may have to correct myself as someone else here reported how the controller was fine without the -select command.
So you may not need it after all.
