Hmmm, I'm intrigued now. At home we've got a Panasonic TA-624 with three lines (one of which carries our DSL connection), and a bunch of extensions (both Proprietary and POTS). How does the VOIP hardware fit in. Does it look like a CO line or an extension to the PBX (or either or both?) -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
