Hello

As the list below is long and not always up to date, could someone
recommend some VoIP gateways besides the well-know Linksys SPA-3102
and its older brother Sipura SPA-3000?

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=VOIP+Gateways

Preferably, I'd like one that has been localized as I read that the
POTS is a bit country-specific (impedance, caller ID, ring signal,
etc.; FWIW, I intend to use it in France)?

Thank you.

Do you have any special requirements? Multiple providers perhaps? If you
need just a vanilla ATA, I would suggest a Sipura 1000/1001.

I'd go for the 2000/2002 as they have two separate phone sockets. The
Sipura range also have the distinct advantage over most in that almost
everything is configurable, including port impedance, ring voltage,
dial/ring tones etc. The downside is that with so many options you really
need to know what you're doing or it's easy to mess things up..!

Sorry guys. I didn't mean an ATA (ie. a box to turn analog equipments
like handsets and fax machines into SIP-fluent devices), but an
FXO-to-SIP adapter like the Sipura 3000 or the Linksys 3102.

I keep seeing those two mentionned, but are there other brands/models
I should consider, especially some that have been localized to match
differences in POTS characteristics (so I don't end up shelling out
200E on a box that just doesn't work reliably outside the US)?

Thank you.
