[Asterisk-Users] Galaxy Voice

[Jay Milk]

I was afraid Vonage might be looking requests to the MAC address of the
calling device.  I know I can pull the info using packet sniff and
ATA186 tools (there's an article on this somewhere on this list).
Makes more sense to me to run all my lines directly into * once I get
this done-- reduces my hardware requirements quite a bit, since I only
have one landline.

  Well, Vonage is now distributing a Motorola gateway, not the ATA186.
I've seen a configuration posted for a Vonage connection for Asterisk.
I imagine that someone just sucked the settings off an ATA186, or just
via a packet sniff.  Vonage supports the X-ten softphone now, so it
should be pretty easy to find out the appropriate proxy and outbound
server to use.

  I doubt they support a "bring your own client" config, but who does?
I've heard that some providers harrass clients using non-supported
hardware.  That sorta makes sense though.  iptel.org runs a public SIP
server, and they claim that they discard up to 60% of all SIP requests
sometimes because there are so many broken SIP user agents out there.
I've never heard of Vonage complaing about it.
