[Asterisk-Users] Vonage and Asterisk integration

[Doug Harris]

Vonage does not allow any other device other than their own to be hooked up
to their system, period. There are whole bunch of service providers who
allow you to hook-up your own device. So why split hairs, use someone else
other than Vonage. Their is nothing extraordinary about Vonage, except they
have some advertising dollars.
