Noob here, my apologies in advance. Recently my employer decide to stop paying for my home POTS line, so I ordered packet8 for a home line instead of another POTS line, since I really dislike my local phone company, and the POTS line without any long distance would cost more than the $20 to packet8 with unlimited US calling.
Anyway, this whole thing got me started thinking about VOIP a lot more, and being a Linux hack, I came across Asterisk pretty fast. Question is this, I know the ATA with packet8 is locked down, but is there any reason I can't use it just like a regular POTS line with Asterisk if I buy a X100P card? That way I could pick up a SIP device to talk to Asterisk, and configure the PBX to use packet8 for all US calling. Being new to this, just want to know if this is a reasonable approach or totally newbian. Also, I saw nufone was very Asterisk friendly, do they support inbound calls, meaning can they assign me a PTSN number, or is their service for outbound calling only?
