Hi All,

Ok, this one if for PhoneBoy, since it seems right up his alley. (Thanks for all your previous help and GREAT posts PhoneBoy.)

I thought I could have two accounts with BroadVoice over one SPA-2000. The problem that BroadVoice is having is this only gives them one MAC address, since they alot everything via that MAC address, there answer is that I then need two (2) Sipura units because they need two (2) MAC addresses, it is not just a line one and line two thing. (Please remember I am a newbie, so I hope this is clear.)

Any ideas how to get around this?

Best to all,

Morgan

If you have them lock your device, they are correct as they lock the service to your MAC address. The second service could be signed up with BYOD -- other type device. Then you can put the SIP credentials on Line 2 and all is happy. Or you could just sign up for both services under BYOD -- Other.

I am planning on buying my ATA from Voxilla - since I will be signing up with BV and with free shipping, no sign up fee, and 1st month free via Voxilla is the best deal.

I will not be keeping my PSTN service, so it sounds like the SPA3000 is out for me

I was thinking of getting the SPA2000 and getting 2 BV numbers. If I get it from you guys, then this should not be a problem for me with BV? I would sign up "line 1" with BV to get the free month and add "line 2" and pay for that one? I would need to do all the config for myself? Is the SPA2000 capable of this or should I get 2 SPA1000 boxes?

Any way to know if I have enough bandwidth to support to calls at the same time? I am on Comcast cable and have "real quick" downloading but just "so so" uploading (up to 3.5mbps down and 384bps up - in theory).

It is POSSIBLE in the SPA2000 to call in on one line and then out on the other (like you can do with PSTN on the SPA300) ? How about if I add a VoIP port converter? It would be nice to sit at work and make "Free" calls via VoIP by calling one local number (a BV one) and loop back out through the other. Of course, it it costs too much in hardware or the quality really hurls then I can just use a calling card or my cell.

Thanks!

Hi Dennis,

BV right now does NOT support two BV numbers coming into the same device (e.g. same MAC address).

But you can use one of the free services with BV. Call into BV on a week day and speak with Peter in Customer service, he is the most knowledgable.

Best regards,

Morgan
