Also when I move to fibre the sip stuff will not go obsolete. I achieve similar benefits keeping the wifi separate from adsl. At the modest level of cost and non-recurring fees I reckon I will get value for money out of the education the project provides. The Cisco SPA112 has codecs and SIP V2 compatible with 2talk. Maybe I'll splash out on a fancy sip phone when I get it all working.<br>

You could also get a *real* VOIP phone for a similar price to the Linksys
ATA, but of course you wouldn't be able to run analogue extensions. The
good news is that it is easier to haul around.<br><br>
I would bother re-provisioning Cisco or similar VOIP/SIP capable phones,
they are designed for corporate infrastructure and a lot of fiddling will
be required.<br><br>
Also have a look at the Linksys ADSL2 + (2 x VOIP) + Wireless + QoS
Router something like

Most interested to see how you get on with this project<br><br>

We've been using VoIP for quite a few years now. Been using 2Talk since
about 2007 or so. As long as you have a decent Internet connection you
shouldn't have any issues. It's quite flexible as you mentioned.<br><br>
You sound like you're only going to use it for outgoing calling which is
a good way to get more comfortable with VoIP. You can port your existing
landline number over if you wanted to go all the way.<br><br>
There's a SIP client built into recent Android builds and third party
clients for builds which don't have that.<br><br>
