@HackyScientress did you also find the matching cable with the proprietary flat connector for the slim PCMCIA card? Otherwise it will be hard.

@satanskrapfen @maxi we had the idea, but we'd need at least the transmitted side of H.320 implemented. I hacked some very early code for demuxing the 8 sub times lots and frames present in each H.221 B-channel but never proceeded beyond that. media.ccc.de/v/retronetcall-20

c3isdn says goodbye for #38c3 - it was an amazing event, and a lot of work. Technically the network worked fine at least on day2/3/4. We've had some problems with PPP services and lots of ideas of what and how to improve next time. Reach out if you want to get involved. Thanks to the tireless helping hands, specifically jolly, crx, gruetzkopf, xent, kolloid, dreieck, the @eventphone team and @c3noc as well as all our users #retronetworking

@uijft es tut uns also leid, wenn nicht alle Orte auf dem #38C3 mit ISDN versorgt werden könnten.

@uijft es ist eine sehr grosse Anstrengung, ein physisches ISDN-Netz in einer Location der Größe des CCH aufzubauen, noch dazu von einem sehr kleinen Team mit viel privatem Arbeitseinsatz [und auch Kosten]. Man kann es schaffen, aber es ist dann eben auch wichtig, dass die Teilnehmer bei der Planung so gut wie möglich mitwirken. Jede Ecke abdecken geht leider nicht immer, insbesondere Halle H ist eine ziemliche Katastrophe zu versorgen :/

@hk @krobin das Foto sieht leider eher nach einem flat flex Kabel (FFC/FPC) aus, als nach einem flachen 4adrigen Telefonkabel...

@zaphodb @eventphone quasi ein umgekehrtes enum? Das wäre ja telefonroutinglookup über DNS..

@dercraig @ChaosPost PPP is now working at #38C3, you can dial 919800 and should get IPv4 via NAT on some strange adresses. That was all that we could do after the many bugs we ran into.

@julijane yes, we're aware of that - but that of course can all be done / demoed / setup with portable equipment at a camp. I was curious if anyone did that at #38c3
