Just to report back now that I have obtained one of the Chinese ATA's.
I got the Gate 102 from Digidave on Ebay. I bid on one that wasn't
listed as 'buy it now' and got it for £14 plus £8 postage.

This model allows you to connect your PSTN line and like a previous
poster I have configured it to make an outgoing call on PSTN by
pressing 9 first. Just entering the number normally sends the connect
out on VOIP.

I am very pleased. It seems reliable and was easy to set up. It
doesn't have some of the more technical settings available as does the
PAP2 range. The audio quality is as good as my PAP2 and the fall back
to PSTN works fine.

Unlike the previous poster, CLID is sent from and received by the unit
using voip.co.uk. However, like the previous poster CLI is not
received with an incoming PSTN call, presumably because the data and
the first ring are lost.

All in all though a good buy and well suited for the purpose it was
purchased for.

Roger.
