Thanks for the info. I thought Linksys PAP2 boxes were locked to a provider? How do you unlock one?

How is the sound quality on voIP.ms?

I for one would not recommend a DYI provider such as les.net or voip.ms for a new user. Instead I would have them go with an integrated porvider such as Vonage or Lingo on the high end and VoIPo or Future-Nine on the low end.

voip.ms has two quality levels, with differing rates. The cheaper is too low quality for me. The more expensive, which is still very inexpensive, is much better.

You can buy unlocked PAP2 boxes. I got mine from eBay.

There is a learning curve so I don't totally disagree with the idea of doing a prepackaged solution. However, I was a VoIP newbie when I got my PAP2 and I was able to figure it out. Still, if the configuration breaks, it's up to me to fix it.
