Spark are forcing me off my legacy mobile plan to one the same price but without free Spotify, so I'm re-evaluating the landline/broadband, and mobile plans we're currently on. I'm looking at moving the landline/broadband to 2 Degrees.

I couldn't find it on the 2 Degrees website but did find old forum posts about setting up your own ATA device or SIP VoIP App on your mobile while on your home network for VoIP landline access. Is this functionality still available?

I'm on ADSL with copper lines to the house and the shed 100m away. I'm happy to plug a cordless phone into the modem, and if possible use a SIP VoIP app on my mobile phone connected to the wireless network in the shed, which is connected to the house network.

If you get the 2Degrees provided FritzBox it does all the VOIP stuff and is pretty decent. There is a Fritz Fon app that connects to it and you can also use other VOIP software to talk to it - I use the freeware 3CX app on my laptop. If you want to connect your own existing VOIP server to 2Degrees, they do allow that now and do provide the required credentials, but you will not get any support. And a slight misconfiguration is capable of landing you a massive international toll bill if a bot comes by and is able to connect to your VOIP server.
