Nope ISDN2e is a *very* diferent beast.

e = Euro Compatible Signalling

ISDN2e is a "proper" ISDN implementation, HH and BH are not..

With Highway, you get a wallbox with four ports: Analaog 1 and 2, Digital 1
and 2

Digital 1 and 2 are bussed internally, Analog 1 is the "original"
Analog
number (also, the *primary* analog number.

You have two channels and can have *any* combination of two ports active at
once... 2 voice, 2 discrete data, 2 bonded data, 1 voice, 1 data..

limitations: you can *NOT* under *ANY* circumstances pick up the analog
lines from the Digital ports, so (for instance) you can't have a voicemail
system on your CAPI/ISDN enabled server which will answer all three
numbers.
(pain in the ass that one)

This is the main indicator that you don't have "real" ISDN. MSN's
behave
strangely too, as they are again only functional on the Digital side.

Ian.

Well the orignal poster was half right ... IIRC Home Highway is classed as
ISDN2e. I assume Keith can enlighten us as to any meaning behind the e
suffix.
