Subject:   OT: Anyone setup a voip gateway before?
Message-ID:  <200110062211.f96MB8o67262@mail.ipsnetwork.net>

I'm looking to setup a relatively small voice-over-ip gateway, in order 
to place a U.S. handset (to match that of the PBX system) in our 
Canadian branch office. I need to be able to use this handset in the 
same manner I could from the U.S. office.
   I have not purchased any equipment as of yet, (including the PBX), 
and I was wondering what anyone else might reccomend? I was thinking of 
either the NBX (now 3com's product) LAN telephony system, or a newer 
Cisco based system; however cost is the biggest concern here.
   I was looking to maybe utilize two Cisco 827-V's over DSL lines to 
the internet, but then I'd have to obtain a second connection at the 
Canadian office; has anyone successfully connected to an 827-V using 
some other router or device which can simply use ethernet instead of 
DSL? That way I could simply assign the device a static IP address on 
the Canadian network, and point the U.S. Cisco 827-v to it?
   Anyhow, just a quick shout to see what anyone else may come up 
with/have done already; before I go researching the he** out of a 
product line that may or may not do what I want. I'm not on the list, 
so if you could reply directly to me, and CC the list that'd be great :)
