Absolutely. If there are good value DID providers out there, it would be
worth knowing. The only one I looked at was Voxbone, but I found them too
expensive at the time. I found a multi-account ATA to be a similar cost but
more flexible.

Like I said the other day, there is a way for free to get a local number
and for it to ring your VoIPDiscount account, again I can't really
publish it on here, so if you eMail me I can let you know, if you remove
the spam trap I'll get the eMail.

Go on, give us a clue, what is the key device or service that enables this.

I don't think it's such a big secret - it is based on registering with
[url]www.voxalot.com[/url] and using them to route the calls to other service
providers - for incoming and multiple outgoing providers according to your
defined dial plan. Voxalot service web site describes its features, options
and offerings.

Cheers from Mike

It's not by using voxalot. So makes it a lot more reliable.

The default line switcher on the SPA-1001 is the # key.
