Mornin all

Moving house shortly and will end up on a BT line.

Now i've been reading around this whole VOIP thing but i'm really not sure if i can make it work.

I have a Linksys WRT54G router, and i'm also used to having a DECT wireless phone and ans machine combined.

We have various friends throughtout the UK but also in Mexico, France, USA and Thailand.

Has anyone seen a combined DECT wireless phone and ans machine that will also do VOIP? I've seen the Dualphone but not with a ans machine included.

If i understand the technology correctly, once i've signed up with a provider it should only be a matter of plugging the VOIP phone into the router, is that correct?

Does the VOIP work as seamlessly in the wild as i hope it will?

Let me know ur thoughts, experiences and suggestions.

Cheers
