Re: Cheap call providers with access code from NTL?

Not sure if you can dump the ntl phone line according to the T&Cs. I managed it quite nicely by dumping both ntl TV and telephone at the same time and going for Sky+ and BT (only got ntl broadband now)

I emailed Draytek regarding STUN and they said
Quote:
The 2100V and 2100VG support SIP and STUN. The 2900VG doesn't support STUN but may in a future firmware version. STUN is only needed if you have a private IP address. So if a 2900VG had a public IP address from the ISP STUN wouldn't be required.
Which leads me to believe that this page on the sipgate site is misleading.

The upshot seems to be that for ntl users who are not NAT'ed, an 'Analogue Telephone Adapter" (ATA) should do the trick and allow the use of a 'Plain Old Telephone (POT - Cant believe they use this acronym) as long as you've got a switch/router to plug it into. Otherwise I guess it would be better to get something like the Draytek for an all in one solution.
