I installed FreePBX 17 using the ISO and choosing the PUB spice on the same system that v16 was installed which is basically a PC. Installation is physical, not virtual.
I can see the cards with command lspci at the bottom of the list.

I am trying to understand if I am doing something wrong (eg was it right move to restore dahdiconfig from v16 config?), if it’s a known issue/quirk (eg something to do with the ISO installation) or it’s just the way it is with my current cards (eg no supported drivers).
I recall for specific chip (i think openvox cards??) I had to download some custom dahdi and compile it for the kernel in order to be able to use the card. But I can’t remember if it’s the case with BeroNet BN2S0.
In any case, all I would need is to point me to the right direction so that I know if it’s worth spending my time or not, so I can look other option, like requesting Service Provider to convert to SIP Trunk.
Many telephony cards were dropped from DAHDI latest versions.
You might be left with the only choice to compile DAHDI manually in order to re-add support for your specific card.
If your card is supposed to be supported, try installing the DAHDI config module, it takes care of enabling all needed kernel drivers and initializing the card before starting Asterisk.
You can set DAHDI module config to read only once you configure the card manually.
The TDM-410 card is an analog card, it should show up on the analog tab.
Can you try first with the TDM-410 alone?
In any case, with latest versions of DAHDi, the TDM-410 is no longer supported, but you should be able to re-enable support by compiling manually AFAIK.
I guess I will try to install an earlier dahdi version that I know it supports the cards. The same version I was using in FreePBX v16.
The card I actually need 100% to work is the other one → BeroNet BN2S0.
From the Github Page of dahdi, I can see inside the wcb4xxp driver that the card is mentioned on all dahdi version. I am ASSUMING that since it is metioned, it is also supported.
I am not sure if this is the correct way to find if a card is supported or not, dahdi is a “black box” to me.
have you tried to reload dahdi spans from cli ?
if you are seeing system.conf and if dahdi_hardware comamnd displaying your hardware details. then try to load channels in to Asterisk.
