	Oh, you mean hook the ethernet up back-to-back, not the FXS
side port?

	I don't see why this would not work.

	You should be able to do this with the sip or h323 software and
just configure each other to speak to the others ip as the remote
endpoint.

	i haven't played with these too much, you can probally configure
them as a 'hotline phone', so you pick up the one and the
other side rings.  I know how to configure this on the IOS side,
just not on the ata-186.
