[cisco-voip] ATA 188 PC Port

[Andrew Croch]

Scott, thank you for your reply.
I thought that I would be able to install the ATA 188 in front of the 
firewall. There are a lot of voice gateways who have a LAN + a WAN port.
Two ports, like the ATA 188.
So the ATA 188 Lan port can only be connected to a PC ??? This is a huge 
limitation of the ATA (one more limitation). I need to use the ATA in front 
of the firewall, once my VoIP carrier does not support NATed endpoints.
So, the conclusion is that the ATA 188 does not have a LAN port that can be 
connected to a router ? I mean, I need two internet connections, one for the 
ATA and one for my LAN ?

Thanks,
Andrew
