How do I know if my router is locked?

    Hi folks,

    I have a VOIP solutions MTA-V102, I was using it with a UK VOIP provider that went t*ts up in the end.
    I am just wondering how I figure out if it's locked or not?
    Also, I'm going to go with NTL BB and blueface VOIP, does anyone know what kind of modem NTL provide? Will it be compatible with this router, as it has an ethernet cable port for the modem, not a USB port.
    I have attached a picture to show you what I mean.

    Cheers folks!

    Ruatha.

    That should be ok if it isn't locked. I connect my NTL modem to a Linksys wireless router/ATA using CAT 5.

    Sorry, what's Cat 5 :confused: My knowledge on this subject is pretty limited...

    CAT 5 is normal network cable, looks like a fat phone cable.

    Oh ok, an RJ45 type cable is it?

    Sign up for the Blueface free trial and put in the details they give you, if it works its not locked (though if it doesn't straight away it might be locked or you could have another issue).
