Re: Hardware Update
I personally like the 286. Tim, Question?? I know you allow us alpha/beta users to do BYOD, but if a person wanted 2 lines, would they be offered the choice of "2" 286's or must they get the new 501 with 2 lines. Reason being, some people, like me, have a pretty elaborate network which has some really excellent routers and hardware QOS. Better QOS than ANY voip adapter or firmware routers can provide. I, and many others, will always prefer to have our voip adapters BEHIND our router. If I was to get a 501, not that I need one, I would STILL place it BEHIND my existing router/network. The router portion would obviously be wasted, but it would operate much better on my network than a router/ata combo trying to run my entire network. It's just that the 286 is so much cheaper, that if it was me, I'd rather have 2 standalone 286 ATA's than 1 501. Even if I did place the 501 BEHIND my network. Thx... Mike....
