![]() I want to do VOIP and have a SB4100 cable modem with virgin media. Would I be thinking that the device below is all the additional hardware that I need as it has a router built in, and implies that you can connect this to both the cable modem and the RJ45 on the PC ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SIP-VoIP-Phone...m#requirements Ian |

However I can't comment on the quality of this ATA. Regards Jon |

" Bidder must be signed up with a freespeech full access account prior to bidding on this unit." I wouldn't touch this. If you want to do voip then do it properly. When I last checked the tariffs from 'freespeech' they didn't seem all that good. If you just need to run one PC and want voip check out the SPA-3102 from broadbandstuff.co.uk or, if you want to run more than one PC go for one of the Fritzbox - try www.broadbandstuf.co.uk or Froogle. My advice: Just don't tie yourself in with a single operator that you know little about when you can do far better elsewhere. You'll find more detailed advice available from this group if you ask for it. Remove 'no_spam_' from email address. |

"*Freespeech offer Terms & Conditions: Bidder must be signed up with a freespeech full access account prior to bidding on this unit. Voucher will be sent via email only to your confirmed registered freespeech email address only. One voucher per user only." I.e. if you want their extra promotional free £10 credit for the freespech service, then you have to be a registered user of that service before purchasing to get this promotional freebie extra. I.e. I don't believe / understand that this has anything to do with the device itself. It is essentially a Grandstream 486 "clone" as I understand and allows full configuration to do anything you want with it. However, they do seem a bit "rich" with their prices to me. Others offer a WLAN ADSL router with full VoIP funcionatliy for £20! ?? But basically I understand that the OP is correct - this device should do all they need. Best wishes, News Reader |

![]() in the end folks, I have decided to go with a Netgear TA612V. I only have a single PC at home, with no plans to no plans to expand. Hopefully I can wave goodbye to Telewest line rental.

P&P so whilst not bargain prices seen at Staples a few months back, should do for time being - Ian On 10 May, 23:27, Brian A wrote: On 10 May 2007 14:37:00 -0700, igdirect wrote: in the end folks, I have decided to go with a Netgear TA612V.
