Don't see any Linksys products on that site at all,
[edit] Just checked smart076.ie and they sell the Linksys PAP2 ATA and it costs 75

You have to create a account to order it but the a/c is free.

They throw in 15 quid worth of credit too.

Marx computers sell Sipura ATAs. Linksys ATAs are just rebadged Sipura devices.

Just be carefull if you buy ATAs off VoIP providers as some (not blueface) lock the devices to their service, even though they sell them to you for full price.

Also be careful if you buy from the likes of ebay where they say it is 'unlocked'.
Mine had one line unlocked but the second line was locked to a US VOIP company.

I only need 1 line at the moment but it would be nice to have had the option of 2.

Smart076 don't lock theirs either.

Thats good to know, it would appear no Irish VoIP providers lock the devices...yet

I emailed Smart asking if they locked their Linksys ATA to their service, here's what they told me:

"For our customers convenience we pre-configure our ATA's so they are
ready for connection upon delivery."

That sounds to me as if they do lock their ATAs to their service.

It's preconfigured. However you have full access to it - I've changed some of my settings.

We don't lock the PAP-2. You buy it and should be able to do what you want with it - we believe our service can match any of the others out there so we don't need to "lock you in" ;-)

Thanks for the clarification Parsi.
