Which VoIP gateway?

Jul 21, 2006 3 Replies

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?

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.
