Hi Just brought a LINKSYS PAP2-NA UNLOCKED from ebay - collected it today. I'm having problems getting it to work. Done a google but still no joy. Dial **** to access the IVR Menu, then enter 110# It then reads out : 192.168.15.113

Hi Now using this system and quite impressed the only problem is that we can hear what we are saying back the headset. Does anyone know how to what is causing this and how to resolve this? Thanks

Hi, I have some questions about (former) NTL / Virgin Media cable broadband services. I understand that they now only supply a single ethernet port cable modem (i.e. / e.g. no more USB via a STB ). Their modems / service used to bind itself to the first MAC it met - is this still the case? Would, and I read more recently that resetting the MAC is no longer

I have had several modems in the past that had great incoming voice featues (you could set up menus and even allow users to have voice commands).. This got me to wondering "if" there's a soft (or cheap(ish) hard) solution out there. and if such solutions are out there then how good are they? .. I would accept the fact that I'll get longer latency times, but fixed plans on the mobiles means I...

Great, my SPA3102 arrived today. Its smaller than I thought, no problem though. Plugged it all in (had already seperated off my house phone wiring from the line), so was just a case of plugging in. 1st stupid mistake, plugged it into the line before the ADSL filter, so I was getting no internet connection on my PC. Started of course with the most difficult solutions, 1 hour later realised what I...

hi, Is it possible to get a ata that would allow multiple sip providers? I would like to be able to have a in-coming provider and a different outgoing provider, and would like the calls to go through the ata but use only one phone and not two separate ones for each service! Cheers, Bob

how can i change the settings if i'd like to improve the quality of the voice while calling? In particular what should change? thanks

There is a standard headphones jack for a headset on my IP telephone, and I'd like to connect an answering machine to it. The trouble is I can't find any answering machine in stores that has the headphone jack. Also, couldn't find any regular answering machine for IP telephones in VOIP internet stores. Did someone try to convert digital dictaphones into the answering machines ? These days there...

Hi, I tryed to receive phone calls from Sipgate.co.uk I am currently connected to Sipgate.co.uk Now, into my calls None of the Sipgate phone received seemed to match this !! :-( --------------------

right i have just installed a TA612V and am using default (auto- configure) settings with sipgate. The installation was painless and it is sitting behind my SB4100 cable modem on a Virgin 2MB connection. No other hardware - just a single PC setup. when phoning parents BT line I am getting some occasional "misses" on the line as if some of the packets were being dropped - anyone else get this -...

Hi, Just found some odd behaviour with our Asterisk set up. If, during a call internally or to a landline, I hit ## I can transfer the call. If I try this during a call to a mobile, it ignores the ## - even when calling out over the same trunk!

Has anyone any experience of the these? Thanks

I have bought one of these from the seller billionax and would like to ask if anyone has and updated the firmware from version 3.1.8 (LS)? I did ask the seller but he was none compital and I can't blame him. So if anyone else has updated these, could you let me know. Many Thanks It's Me

Hello, I am looking for a special kind of voice mail system that is only active during certain hours, for instance on weekdays all the time except from 6-10pm, on Saturday all the time except 10am-6pm and on Sunday the whole day. It is meant for a small business that is currently only active after office hours. How can I realise something like that? Are there any VOIP providers that...

I'm after a decent quality ATA with one FXO port and one Ethernet port. Ie a box which will plug into a BT wall socket and my LAN. It needs to route incominmg calls to a remote SIP account, and accept an incoming SIP call and send it to the PSTN. I don't care if it has a local FSX port for a phone as it'll not be used. Any suggestions?

Hi I understand that some codecs are better than others for use when upload bandwidth is limited. But with Tesco Internet Phone and Sipegate X-lite how do you change codecs? Thanks
