Folks


I have an odd problem with my VOIP.


My LinkSys PAP2 is connected to a BT Business Hub (aka 2Wire 2700) router.
The PAP2 is set up in the router DMZ - i.e. no firewall.
2 other PC's are connected to the same router.


Outbound calling always seems to work.

But, inbound calling does not work when both the other PC's are turned off.
Callers hear a message "this number is temporarily unavailable".
The "Phone 1" LED on the PAP2 does not light up.

As soon as at least one of the PC's is booted up the Inbound calling works fine.
The "Phone 1" LED on the PAP2 lights up.

I have checked the router timeout and it is set to 0 - no timeout.
Also the router logs don't seem to show that it is dropping the line.


I have no idea what could cause this. Any ideas?


Thanks - Adam
