Hi everyone,
A real newbie question here, but I cant find anything in the forums to help me.
I am thinking of joining xnet naked dsl/fusion, I have a linksys ag310 currently configured for 2talk voip.
My question is: If I change to xnet can I still use my 2talk softphone to make calls?
My understanding is that xnet will reconfigure my ag310 automatically on connection, and throw a dummy if I use anything other than what they say I can.. So wont be able to use the ag310 for 2talk.But that wont affect the softphone for 2talk will it?

Hope you can all help with this one

Thanks Allan

The AG310 has only one port so supports only one account. But if 2Talk soft phone can work like Skype without hardware (I don't know), then it is independent and it is up to 2Talk to allow that or not.

You can never have enough Volvos!

Hi Allan,

Your softphone will still work fine,
All that happens is that we configure the device for you so that it should work 100% with our feature sets, you will also have correct dial plans, ring tones etc, if we didn't do that bit for you then you and others could misconfigure devices and cause problems for yourselves and inturn us (by an increased number of support calls)

Fusion is a product where it's a voice service combined with a dsl product, so it's a Fixed line replacement service, but anything you have running behind that will contine to work as normal.

Yes I am a employee of WxC (My Profile) ... but I do have my own opinions as well
