Thanks for the answer. Is this PSTN gateway is something for a VoIP company to setup in order to connect their VoIP calls to the Telco's PSTN then to the end phone? I don't think Australia treat this as illegal. But I m not sure how much the Telco will charge from IP PAX (or PSTN) gateway to

Sam, I am still unsure to understand your question :-/ How much your telco is going to charge you for the PSTN calls depends on your arrangement with the telco... Usually, with proper volume interconnects (say you order a PRI line), these calls are charged per second. Do I really need

Hi, I m still not quite understand why I need E1/T1 PRI line with VoIP calls to normal phone line. I thought I can send calls out thru a normal home telphone line. If this is the case, I will just need to pay each VoIP call to phone line at 20 - 30 cents / call. Then you will need to buy an
