Unfortunately. it *is* locked as supplied, the configuration page from the
link you mention takes you to a screen where you can download your Sipgate
account information into the TA612V, that's all. There is no way on the
unit as supplied to configure individual options on the VoIP setup,
although you can do so for the router functions.

I am told that it is possible to unlock the TA612V but I don't know anyone
who has managed to do this.
