Jim,

Looking at this service, I have a pots line coming in, as the trunk and four
pots lines as the pbx, is that correct.

Lets say I have a cable connection, and instead of an incoming pots line, I
want to connect to a VOIP carrier, can asterik do this?

If so, how?  what carrier would I connect to?

This is not clear from the documentation.

Thanks

Chip
