Santos and others,

For what it's worth, don't do business with them. I was also thrilled by their GSM gateway and it's cost and ordered one. Not talking about they charged double price for the sample, it appeared a poorly designed GSM adapter that you sometimes see in rural areas for the pay phone setups.

Basically it's a single FXS to GSM kind of box where you connect regular analog phone and put a gsm sim card(with no pin number set) into its slot. No ethernet ports nothing. Came with gsm antena, power adapter and has a backup battery inside for when you lose power.

There was no documentation included, I later received a poorly written english translation in .doc format.

Was supposed to work out of box, but the unit I received was dead brick imho as it didn't accept any sim card from any of local gsm providers, it was just the same dead silence with no or a sim card inserted. ICSTELL refused to replace or refund the sample and then stopped replying to my emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm using it as a door brick now.

The "support" was barely speaking(and understanding) English and while they have their bank account in France, this is Chinese manufacturer.

If you wish I can send you my correspondence with them off-list.

HTH,
Vahan

They appear  sometimes on the news  page of voip-info.org. I received a
couple of replies from them, but nothing more. They have a couple of
intersting products but they appear to be dead/not responding, however,
they keep posting new products on voip-info.org. How they expect to sell
if they behave like this?...

I have a price list from them, the prices are cheap. I'm particullary
interested on their analog GSM gateway because of its price...  Any
opinion/experince would be welcome.


Santos
