||||
|||| Telewest 2 meg broadband connection
|||| Netgear FR114P router with print server that I use
|||| 2 computers connected to the router
|||| Sipgate account
|||| X-lite softphone all set up and running
|||

|| The Sipura 1001 or 2000 are far better products than any of the
|| Grandstream range. Both have capacity for two accounts/phone
|| numbers, the 1001 has a single phone port and you switch between the
|| two numbers with codes, the 2000 has two physical sockets into which
|| you plug two phones. Which you choose depends on your needs, for

|| time, by two different people..? If so the 1001 would be no use.

You took the words right out of my mouth.
