If the Asterisk server is outside your local network (i.e. remote location) I think you have to use the WAN port, because the ATA will try tu use it's WAN gateway to connect to other networks.

I didn't see any. Only dis-advantages. If you use the WAN port you will loose network access to the device - by definition - unless you enable the remote access to it on a predefined ip and port. Other than that using it on the LAN port works great. I also have 2 of these, one on my bell line, and the other just a telephone VOIP adapter for now, both on the LAN port.

Greetings Asterisk folks, I am new to asterisk and VOIP, but this mailing list and internet sites are very helpful. I have a Linksys SPA-3102 I want to use as a VOIP/PSTN gateway. In addition to the VOIP capabilities being similar (if not identical) to the Sipura SPA-3000, it also has router software as well. I don't care much for the router as I have a dedicated firewall/router on my LAN already. But this 3102 has a LAN and a WAN network ports. I've had success connecting to my LAN using either port, however is there any advantage using one over the other? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
