I am contemplating buying a RUT-200 and I would like to connect a simple kind of phone to it, like a VOIP phone of some sort. But I read elshwhere on this site that the RUT-200 cannot make outgoing calls?
Does this mean I would not be able to make any calls using a VOIP phone, only receive them?
@Marijus , I’m confused. Does this mean that if I connect any VoIP-phone/SIP-client to my rutx50 I can call it using my sim-card number? If so, where can I find info about how to set this up?
No, the router uses this number and is the only piece of equipment that can make calls or send SMS messages using it. VOIP phones are separate Ethernet devices that make phone calls over an internet connection. Each VOIP phone connects through a VOIP service provider, which you access by logging into the VOIP phone or using specific software. Therefore, the VOIP phone operates independently of the router. For more information, you should contact your chosen VOIP service provider.
