You need an ATA (analogue telephone adaptor) and an analogue phone

or

A sip compatable phone, that isn't the same as the cheap handsets that plug into a pc, you need a sip phone you can plug in to your router.

Hi there Ian,

I thought you could just use a headset and did not have to have a telephone ATA box with the Sipgate "Soft Phone" that you can download from their site?

I thought the ATA box was just if you did not want to leave the PC running to receive/make calls?

Can anybody confirm this please? Or am I wrong?

Mark.

You can use either a SIP VoIP handset (e.g. those sold by sipgate) - Skype phones are NOT compatible with sipgate

OR

Any analogue phone with an Analogue Telephone Adaptor (ATA)

OR

Any microphone and headset with your computer and some VoIP software (e.g. the soft-phone provided by sipgate).
