Agreed FritzBox is best ATA I tried, although Vonage locked Linksys
(remotely provisioned) was also fairly reliable from a user perspective. I
have not found any ATA as good as the FritzBox (7050 in my case) for
something as simple as SIP registration, though. All other boxes I have
tried give up trying eventually, which dramatically increases downtime as
soon as you have an ISP problem.

FritzBox is also specified to handle ISDN, although I have no use for this.
