I’m sure this has been discussed before, but I was unable to find on Google search
a simple list of features that Dial will get me over my current Acid setup. Can I get
an opinion of whether it’s advantageous to migrate to Dial?

John,
DIAL is simply current AllStar Asterisk on the current version of
Debian. There are no added features.
Here is the FAQ:

Thank you Dave.
Once you get here, ring me up and we’ll have you and wife over for dinner. I’ll have my tower up by then and you’ll be able to hit my repeater from Queen Creek.

Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Difference between Dial and Acid
Hey John,
I have been running DIAL for at least 6 months and it is a definite upgrade from ACID. It is built to operate the old Pentium4 and the newer architecture Dual Core processor PC’s. It runs off of Debian and uses simpleUSB. Overall solid product. I’ve not had an issue with it.
Good deal your running the WINsystem off your repeater in Mesa. I am getting ready to move to Queens Creek as I’m in the process of applying for a home loan with Ryland homes and hope to move in November. I plan to apply for a 440 repeater frequency to run my Allstarlink network. Hawaii/Mainland Allstarlink network.
I am also running my other nodes in a DataCenter in San Francisco and it is working great. What is your repeater frequency?
Look forward to further dialogue as I plan to move my family to Arizona. My wife is from Thatcher and I’m from Hawaii. We met at BYU-Hawaii.
73 and aloha

I might be wrong but ACID needs constant internet, if Ethernet gets unplugged, only a reboot will get it back on the Internet. DIAL supports hot plugging in the Internet, swapping it out with another network etc.
At least on my Dell old tower PC, an outage of Ethernet required me to reboot the machine to get internet to work again. Maybe it was a hardware problem something specefic to my computer. I never tested it on DIAL before I switched to the PI for AllStar

well on my acid install, I noticed that I could unplug the ethernet cord or plug it into a different network and it would eventually reconnect. Sometimes it took as much is 5 minutes for it to reconnect but I didn’t really have to reboot it.

The question comes down to the differences between Centos 5.x and
Debian 8.x
Install media: CD only or CD and USB flash
Kernel version: 2.x or 3.x
Support for newer hardware
Supported updates of distribution
Zaptel vs DAHDI
Ongoing AllStar support.
The old adage applies, If it works, don't fix it. If you are happy
with ACID keep it. If you are doing a new install, it’s up to you.
Understand, I'm slightly biased.

Adding 'allow-hotplug eth0' to the /etc/network/interfaces helps on some Ubuntu systems. This tries to reconfigure the port when the link status changes. Some systems appear to need it, on others it appears to be the default. It doesn't hurt to add it.
