Does the CIT200 only work with skype or can it be used with other voip services, Voipbuster are much cheaper than skype.Alex
Linksys seem to have been doing a lot of deals with VOIP service providers and locking there hardware so that it can only be used with a single provider. Please check before purchasing, coz im a bit annoyed that the linksys voip adapter that I bought is locked to Vonage. Read the contract before you sign up to anything and check there is no CANCELATION FEE!!chris_brunt
