Just thinking of buying one of the FritzBoxes to replace a SIP softphone,
and need a bit of advice. I currently use a Vonage adapter for standard
calls, but want to overlay SIP onto my analogue phones to take advantage of
the better rates to mobiles and international calls. I also want to get a
couple of international in-bound numbers not offered by Vonage. I have seen
some of Ivor's previous posts but need a bit more detail.

What I need:
Non-DSL compatible version (to connect to existing network)
PSTN Passthrough (to connect to my Vonage box for inbound and calls to
emergency services)
Multiple SIP accounts (both in- out-bound - I have become a bit
disillusioned with Voxalot)
Flexible call routing via SIP or PSTN port

I think the FritzBox Fon ATA covers all this but the following questions
also come to mind:
The AVM website mentions up to 10 SIP accounts for similar models but not
this particular one? Can any owners advise?
Are the multiple SIP accounts all in- and out-bound?
Is Caller Display passed through from PSTN port OK (not sure which flavour
Vonage use but I guess if BT flavour is passed through then Bellcore
flavours will also make it through).
I think the 7050 offers WLAN and an extra telephone port but I don't
particularly need either of these. Is there any other advantage to this
model over the ATA?

If it helps others, I have found you can buy many of the Fritz boxes in
Germany for the same price in Euros (excl shipping) that we pay in Pounds
here. Would just need to source power supply or adapter and RJ11 adapter I
guess. See [url]www.amazon.de[/url], for example. They also have new versions not yet
available in the UK. Not sure whether these are fully "localised" though
(language, caller display, ring pattern etc.). I think VoIP generally is
much more mass-market there so I am sure there is also other equipment
around.
