Michael: Once it has been all hooked up - I want an incoming call to not only ring the home phone but also ring my cell. Is this possible? Yes. 100% possible.
What else do I need? Good understanding of Dial Plans in extensions.conf file. Do I need to purchase a an outgoing SIP Line? That's usually a good idea in my books. Cheers!

I have decided for now to keep Bell. I am looking to buy a Linksys SPA-3102 to connect my PSTN to my home phones. A quick scenario question: Once it has been all hooked up - I want an incoming call to not only ring the home phone but also ring my cell. Is this possible? What else do I need?

If you are looking at canceling your Bell phone line, you might want to consider going with a phone provider that will still be able to offer you 911 service. Although I currently do not use them, I have been looking into Unlimitel since they offer 911 service and you can port your phone number over to them. A number of people on the list here seem to use Unlimitel and from what I have heard it is good. Good luck. Chris PS. Enjoy building your system this weekend. I set up mine a few weeks ago with a computer I bought for $30 used from a computer store. It doesn't take much to get up and running! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Michael Bryenton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 22, 2007 10:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [on-asterisk] newbie questions I sent to the Ottawa Asterisk User Group but the site and mailing list seems to be down. I would like to build a TRIXBOX this weekend and eventually cancel phone service with Bell. My experience as I haven't got to a meeting yet is ready the book "Trixbox Made Easy". I am currently a Teksavvy DSL user - I guess I would have to switch to dry DSL (or would I be better off with cable internet?) I am looking for a recommendation for a service provider - perhaps with the option of keeping my old number. Most of my calling is local - so would prefer a unlimited local bundled price. Features not that important - what I need I hope to make Asterisk do for me. I am currently in the market for an ATA adapter - seems like the PAP2T-NA is the one to get - correct? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike
