Thanks Michael, VoicePulse does have local number, so I just provisioned one :)
Now I am setting it up, no problem so far, the next question is. If I get 2 simultaneous calls on my inbound will one ring busy or will asterisk handle this for me? I would like to be able to receive multiple simultaneous calls if possible for an application I am developing. Also, I assume to go through my router (NAT) I just need to open up the one port, 5036, right? Whopee! I can give Vonage it's device and high prices back soon :) Too bad they couldn't play nice and allow other devices on their service. > I used Vonage for a year, up until last month in fact.
