Yes, D channel signalling is detected and some of the 2 channel calls
connected use the first B channel from each ISDN line, and other calls use
both of the B channels from the first line.

I get a 2 channel call completed with a Lan Session up and then no
additional channels attempt to dial.

A code upgrade would be OK.  If you know of a good code rev for the 400 ( as
few bugs as possible please ) let me know.  I doubt code has been developed
in the 5.0 range for the 400, so I assume it will still be 4.6C something.
