At least thats what they say, personally its the first I have heard of them.

Been using a 7050 as my voip-normal phone ata, it does have adsl capability but it's cr*p.

My phone quality is so poor (quiet etc) voip was the only way to go, plus it gives us a seperate  phone number and bill's for all of us. (mother lives with me)

My company is a business voip provider and i have the worst adls line in the company so guess who has to do all the testing. as well as look after the datacentre etc.

we also have our own pstn switch (can handle 500,000 concurrent calls) were on the backbone of the main london fibre ring and later next year Wholesale Line Rental (WLR3) and Carrier Pre Select (CPS) will be on the platform.

Just a pain i have the worse adsl in the company.
