I bought a Linksys WAG54GP2 wireless adsl voip gateway device yesterday.
The DSE website says this:
Finally, there's a built-in phone adapter which enables high-quality
feature-rich telephone service through your high-speed connection even
while you're surfing the Internet. There are two standard telephone
jacks, each operating independently -- like having two phone lines.
With an appropriate Internet telephone service provider, you'll get low
domestic and international phone rates and lots of other available
special phone features.

This led me to believe that I could use it with any provider or indeed link it to my asterisk box.
The box had an Xnet VFS sticker on it. I thought that simply signified that it was supported by/comaptible with them.
No.
The voip settings are locked down and this can only be used with X-net. There is no mention of this on the box.
HOWEVER, there is a web link to an X-net PDF file: [url]http://www.dse.co.nz/isroot/dse%5Csupport/Linksys_WorldxChange.pdf[/url]
This PDF is the only thing that tells me that it's locked.
This is very misleading!
