HI, OK, I'm going to chime in on this one as I am going to set up an Asterisk system for our volunteer ambulance service. As a part of the Emergency Services we need to maintain a POTS line as redundancy and due to the fact that with an old style phone I don't need power for the phone to work. I plan on using a SIP provider for the rest of our phone needs. If not for the emergency services part I would go completely SIP based. Anyway I would need a FXO/FXS card for use in the US. Only one line so I don't need any of the fancy 4 line systems. I have heard you can use certain modems to do this but I would like what I am doing to be seamless and not require hacking at a problem for hours to save $50. I just want it to work quick and easy. I am unsure what you mean by "What kind of lines?" and "What options are availible to you?". Maybe that is part of asking this question, to get some info about the phone system too. Any help would be grand.
