Thanks folks - looks good.

Certainly, when I set up my Sipura ATA SPA1001 - apart from get the
bits right like regional settings etc (with help from this forum) I
didn't have to do anything else other than make sure the Router was set
as per instructions.... nothing difficult.

Running a second ATA should be the same I assume - and if I had any
local difficulties, no doubt members of this forum would assist as
always!

All I need now is a good price for another SPA 1001

Thanks again

Mick

Yeah, my PAP2 is on my NAT router without any ports being forwarded, no
problems at all.

Having looked into this now, I could probably upgrade the SPA1001 to a
PAP2 and achieve the same result but only taking up 1 port on the
router and one point on the trailing 240v socket.

Would that make sense?

(I could always give daughter the SPA1001 when she goes to Uni)

Just a thought (sorry about the multi posts) ..... the SPA1001 isn't
locked to any provider - is the PAP2 the same - unlocked?

It depends where you buy them from.


[url]http://www.provoip.co.uk/[/url] is always unlocked, as are others.

Curious that. No way could I get voip.co.uk to work through a Belkin
wireless router using a wired port. The preconfigured Xlite softfone
from Sipgate would receive incoming calls but I could never make
outgoing.

Changed to a Netgear 614 and set up port forwarding and all now works
a treat, even with a SPA2000 or SPA2102.
