Description

Describe the bug

I'm trying to get asterisk to work with an analog line on a FRITZ!Box 7490 (Micron NAND); trying to stick to https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/voip/chan-lantiq.
As far as I've heard, chan is deprecated? Is there an alternative or is it the only way on this platform?

Trying to install asterisk-chan-lantiq seems to crash the router:

Configuring kmod-ltq-tapi

Here the ssh connection is lost/the xhr request fails on LuCi and the router comes online again later with a recent uptime.

Could it be an issue with the dts config/cmdline? Or something else?

To use FXS ports with e. g. Archer VR200v the kernel command line (bootargs) needs to be edited and a vmmc section must added to DTS file. Then FXS might probably work with chan-lantiq (not tested).

Research direction

Start with the opkg installation transcript, especially configuration of kmod-ltq-tapi and installation of kmod-ltq-vmmc; inspect the FRITZ!Box 7490 lantiq/xrx200 DTS and bootargs mentioned in the report. Reproduce the crash and identify whether the package, kernel modules, or device-tree configuration causes it; done means installation no longer reboots the router or the incompatibility is documented.
