Well, the journey of automating my phone system is reaching the final turn. I finally have the system working the way I want to with Vitelity, and now I am ready to put it into production. After banging my head against my desk trying to get a pair of SPA-3102's working at all (let alone well. Half of the How-To's on the net are over 5 years old, and the half that are newer conflict with the other half ) with PIAF I am ready to buy what I probably should have purchased from day one, but the question is what should that be. Which will give me the best voice quality and easy configuration and compatibility with PIAF (preferably without breaking the bank)
In the research done and forums I have read, the Obihai seems like the best choice (or at least the most commented on), but which one and is it truly plug and play with PIAF (and reliable?) I thank in advance any and all of you who can help me to choose the best device to finally make this journey complete.
Just a quick breakdown of my equipment. I am currently running PIAF on a Thinkpad T500, and also have a Panasonic TGP550 with a base and 5 handsets. I have 2 (will probably have 3 or 4 in the near future) analog phone lines which I want to use for all incoming calls (and here is where I need the FXO ports for use with PIAF) and I will use the Vitelity SIP account for outgoing calls for now, but may also want to use the analog lines for outgoing calls as well.
If I went with the OBI202 for example, to handle (if it will at all) the 2 analog phone lines I have now, would I be able to add a second unit to handle lines 3 & 4 in the future?
