It seems like you have configure the NT-side to P2P mode.

Try running "isdnconfig -u 0 -p DRVR_DSS1_NT".

Then "cat /dev/i4b > /dev/null &" or run "capitest -u 0 -i 1 -o 1".

Then pickup the phone. Have "isdndecode" running concurrently. Do you hear the 
dialtone ?

The message "TEI Identity message = REQUEST" means that Point to Multipoint 
mode is used.

I am not sure if the cable is fine, but at least you receive messages.

You can double check the crossover with "man ihfc".

"capitest" does not require "isdnd".
