OK, I'll explain it a bit more.
Voxalot is a sort of 'online' ATA with additional features.
If you get a voip account, with an incoming UK number, the SIP
username and password can be entered into the Voxalot settings and the
account will register with the SIP provider (e.g. VoipCheap) just as
though it was an ATA or SIP softphone.
Now you use Voxalot for your provider on your ATA (or softphone).
Calls into your VoipCheap number will route via Voxalot to your ATA.
In addition, however, it is also possible to call your Voxalot number,
via a Sipbroker PSTN access number ( that is a landline number, e.g.
+34-93-396-80-00 in Barcellona). When the Sipbroker PSTN access line
answers the caller inputs *010 followed by your 6 digit Voxalot number
and the call is connected. The whole point of using Voxalot is that it
enables callers to call, via Sipbroker, from an ATA, softphone or a
Sipbroker PSTN access line. You can't do that with VoipCheap because
the don't allow incoming calls directly to your SIP address (except
possibly from their own network) but Voxalot do.
If you want to read in more detail then take a look at the links
above. Anyone can call via Sipbroker, no account is needed. Just enter
anything in SIP settings the username and password and sipbroker.com
as the proxy server. You will see a very long list of access numbers
and access codes on th eSipbroker website. You will see a red cross
next to VoipCheap, indicating that it will not except calls from other
SIP networks, i.e. calls only via an assigned incoming 'landline'
number.
