The Staples Clearance Thread

Took my bargain TA612 back to staples - it only works with sipgate and there's knack all settings you can change! What a swiz. Even a review in personal computer world says it's misleading so it wasn't just me! http://www.itweek.co.uk/personal-computer-world/hardware/2144436/netgear-ta612v

you can unlock the box via the sipgate website....oops you've already returned it! the info was somewhere else on this thread i think

initially the option wasn't available to unlock, hence the review you've quoted...

When you sign up to Sipgate you download the unlocking software/firmware. You aren't limited to using Sipgate though.

Linksys Vonage units £9.91, though not PAP2.

Thanks for sharing the info!
I got one of it this evening. Is this one possible to unlock as well like the TA612V? I would like to use it to make calls via voipcheap.com.
Cheers!

I believe it isn't possible on those units.

not happy to know it but thanks a lot for your quick reply!

@tin:

it is possible to unlock the TA612V, apparently. register with sipgate as it asks, then look for a link that says 'unlock firmware'. a simple search of the MSE forums will turn up the instructions.

NONE of the following left in Carlisle store:

3no. Linksys NSLU2 Network Storage Link
1no. Linksys RT31P2 Broadband Router with VoIP
2no. Netgear TA612V Broadband Voice Adapter

...as I cleared their stock

(all for colleagues at work at cost plus 9p, plus a pint, cos it's that time of year!)
