Hi,

I'm currently with Vonage on their basic plan which is £3.49 a month, I
don't get any minutes with this which is fine as I only use it for
incoming calls.

Is there a free service I could move to and take my number with me? I
have a local number at the moment which was provided to my by Vonage,
thing is losing it will be a pain in the butt having to update everyone.

Any suggestions greatly recieved!

WB

Sipgate is free if you just want incoming calls. Not sure if they can
port from Vonage, but they will advise you.......

Thank you, my next question is for adapters, currently I have a black
box that plugs into the router which I plug in a cordless panasonic phone.

I've had a look on the sipgate site but they seem to be routers, can
anyone suggest an adapter or something similar to the thing that Vonage
supply?

thanks in advance!

Obi110 or Obi100 - You'd have to set up your own Sipgate (or whoever you
decide to sign up with) login details, but that's not too difficult.

The SPA112 is an updated Linksys PAP2T (shown on the Sipgate site).
Don't go for the Linksys; it has been discontinued and Cisco are
releasing no further firmware updates for it. The SPA112 is a new model
and should be a sound piece of kit.

If you need help configuring Sipgate settings let me know.

Probebly the cheapest option wold be a Linksys PAP-2, you can get them
via ebay for less than £20 delivered. The PAP-2 is effectivly two
adapters in one box so you can have a 2nd line.

To my mind that's a good reason *to* buy one, because they are likley
to be sold off cheap.
