Not easilly.
Your Grandstream phone uses an industry standard, open and published
protocol called SIP. Skype uses it's own proprietary and closed
protocol. The two don't mix[1].

[1] Actually, there is a Skype module for Astersk that could in-theroy
allow you to call a Skype number from your Grandstream phone, via a
local asterisk server, but I suspect it's more than you want to do to
make this work. |
