Got it going about 5 mins. before having to go out to work. I have set
it up with Voiptalk.org with a UK number, and at the moment is
configured to transfer calls coming in, on PTSN back out over VOIP, to
my Spanish Mobile number (I live/work in Spain) it works very well,
much better than my first attempts with SKPE. Couple of things before
I start getting stuck in with call plans etc. I used the recommended
settings on the LinkSys site to set up the divert, but a couple of
problems. The PTSN line is allowed to ring a few times before being
diverted to Voip, thus people give up waiting for me to answer. The
other problem is the speech volume level is too low, any pointers
please.
