Hi Andreas,
I just received my Lingo ATA yesterday and plan on tackling the same
question.  From what I understand, Lingo uses MGCP, not SIP.  Where did you
read that they are using SIP?

So far, Lingo has been great, I just made a 2 hour call to Germany from the
U.S.  Call quality was no different from POTS to my ear.  I will post a
thorough review of Lingo after using it further and after I try to figure
out how to get it working with asterisk.

Also if you decide to sign up and you feel like giving me a $25 credit to my
account (that would be very nice! :D), enter my name and email when you sign
