Ahh Mr Carbuyer ... you should have _specified_ you wanted tires with that new car We can still help you though, it will just be an extra $$ above the price we quoted you I understand the concept. I see it in many industries until a company comes along that cares about it's customers I still think that digium is the best buy (for the small scale stuff that I'm interested in anyway) ... and hey, they gave us the software (even if you don't buy the hardware) Perhaps they should look at adding a self-contained FXS like their usb one but with a 10/100 interface instead of usb to their product line William X Walsh (william at wxw.org) wrote*:> >On Mon, 2003-02-24 at 17:46, Jon Pounder wrote: >> What would you think if I sold you a screw and told you, you could only hit >> it with a hammer unless you bought the screwdriver licence ? >> >> You would think I am an idiot and use the screwdriver anyway.

And DHCP? And routing tables? We're talking a self-contained computer, here. A USB device (dependent on an operating computer) is much simpler than an independent device and needs far less care and feeding. What with the forthcoming 4-port station cards or with channel banks, the price of multiple phones plummets far below the price of multiple VoIP stations, anyway. -Tilghman
I know this has probably been rehashed a million times, but please bear with me for a little bit... Vonage claims that I can't use their service without having it go through the ATA 186. I see no reason to do that, when I can have Asterisk simply connect directly. Has anyone been successful in spoofing Vonage into believing your Asterisk server was one of their ATA 186's? If I could do that, we would probably switch our phone lines over to Vonage. Thanks! Steve Meyers
Right...The config file itself is encrypted so if you capture the downlaod and can crack the RC4 algorithm then you are in. The SIP authentication itself is just an MD5 hash of the password. If it is a short password you can try to brute force your way into cracking it. But if it is a long one (the parameter allows up to 31 alphanumeric characters) then its probably not practical.
