Hey Bob,
I think the SPA31-2 is the new guy on the block. Only $10 more too mail
order. $86 was the best I saw.
So I have the PAP2 with two cheapy $4 wall phones mounted in the kids
room, they are calling each other and my laptop.. Only issue so far is
that to call one PAP2 from the other there is a 10 sec delay before the
ringback/ring occurs.. and a 3 & 5 year old can have an entire
conversation before the phone even rings. ;) Calling from my X-Lite soft
phone to the PAP2 is nearly instant.
But it does have my wife actually jazzed about having two more phones
where she works in the house so she can join the fun.. Score! A free pass
to buy more toys! Another PAP2 and a SPA3102 for me

Nick,
I've used a SPA3000. There seems to be a later model from Linksys, hopefully
it works better. I had some severe echo problems due to my distance from the
CO. The SPA3000 never could seem to compensate. The older software worked
better, but it never passed muster with the wife. Went to a Digium TDM11B, no
problems.
There are plenty of mini-howtos on the web to set up a SPA3000. If you are
close to your CO and the price is right, give it a try. I think I read
somewhere that at up to 7000 feet between the CO and the SPA acceptable
results are possible. I'm at about 18000 feet.
Bob...

Hi Corey,
I spend 2 hours with REALLY bad docs on how to "Unlock" the PAP2 Vonage I
got from Office Max. I bought it the second I saw a glimpse of an articaly
that it could be turned back into an NA. Anyone want to try this? The nes
ones one the shelf in my area had 3.1.3 code already, but if you put
together a few seperate "How-To's" ya can get a really simple procedure
and the files to clean out Vonage and I can say my kids LOVE the new
phones in their rooms to play house with ;) (So yeah, end result was
actually 30 seconds and two reboots on the unit and it's Vonage Free and
happily on my Asterisk network)
So now I am looking at the Linksys SPA3000 to use as a poor-man's FXO
port. It looks like this is an easier task doc's wise. Anyone set this up?
Nick
If anyone wants the final steps I used on the PAP2 lemme know.
