I have been playing with my new VOIP phone for some time now. I bought Linksys PAP2-NA and opened an account with a Canadian firm. Surprisingly I found out that Canadian dollar is now more expensive than American. Not much to warrant looking for another company. Of cause it did not work out of the box - I had to always use long distance numbers even for my zone and incoming calls were always busy. After contacting my provider I unchecked "Send DID Prefix" option in my DID and it worked! I still need to iron out problems with NAT before disconnecting my normal phone - incoming calls do not always connect. After that I will tell my TelCo bye-bye.
