I used it for like 44seconds to call a LL and i charged me like 30p for it :?

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

No, I know that it doesnt use standard P2P ports but the design of the network / carriage of call data is utilises P2P.
I was playing with identifying and setting QoS against Skype traffic with my Cisco router. If I can do that then it really wouldnt be too hard for ISPs to identify and block Skype traffic.

Id really like to get Asterisk deployed at work but I just dont get the time to properly investigate it.
Its all a bit more complicated than Id like. I need to have a single Asterisk box acting as a SIP PBX for all extension across 23 sites.
Each extension has to be a DECT handset and have access to a landline that is local to the extension (and remote from the Asterisk box) and provided by a POTS PBX.
I started looking at installing PAP2 type devices on each DECT extension, with the PAP2 logging into a single Asterisk box over the web. Unfortunately I couldnt figure out an easy way to deploy the PAP2 configuration automagically to each PAP2 and the thought of manually configuring 300 PAP2s put the project on hold :(

I probably just need to sit down and start again. The problem I have is that with limited knowledge comes bad decisions. Im sure there are better ways to achieve what I want too but I just havent found them yet.

However there are apps out there that can grab and deploy XML files containing the configuration for pap2 devices, not sure if it has been used on a mass deployment as they are intended for backup purposes and stuff.

And mark the ATA186 is a pap2 in a cisco shell. Considering linksys are owned by cisco...

theyre similar (very) but not the same.
The ATA was a komodo  product. The team that left cisco after their buyout developed another device that was licensed to Linksys.

Ive found a couple of device that you can provision via any HTTP server. They could well be a good solution as (from what Ive read so far) I can get the device to report its URL in the HTTP GET header and then use a PHP script to determine the correct provisioning script based on Public IP (site) and device (mac address). Could be ideal.

Wait, I got 1.02 euros bundled with my phone;

Jun 09 22:39 +4423........... United Kingdom Call £0.012 00:15 £0.041
Jun 09 21:26 +4423........... United Kingdom Call £0.012 00:46 £0.041
Jun 09 21:11 +4423........... United Kingdom Call £0.012 00:00 £0.000

I got £0.71 left. That makes sense.
