The seller asserts that this is new, unlocked SPA 2002, but I've seen at least one post that suggests that all 2002s are affiliated with a VOIP company. True? If so, how do I keep my 2002 unlocked?
There are factory unlocked spa-2002's sold. If this is one, you don't have anything to worry about. It cannot "provision itself" if it was never provisioned.

As travelguy said, if it was provisioned before - just select NO for auto-provision and erase any provider information in the same screen. If you cannot select no, erasing the info is good enough.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Equipment-SPA2002-Question-18238814 Thu, 26 Apr 2007 17:06:29 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Equipment-SPA2002-Question-18238785
I believe you can stop any provider from "provisioning" your ata by setting Provision Enable: NO on the Provisioning tab. When set to NO, any parameter changes must be made manually or by a manual reset. You can place passwords on your adapter for additional security.

If the adapter was previously locked to a provider there are some unlocking schemes that will revert to a locked status when a manual reset to factory defaults is issued. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Equipment-SPA2002-Question-18238785 Thu, 26 Apr 2007 16:59:36 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Equipment-SPA2002-Question-18238388
So far, so good. From reading the thousands of posts here and there, I gather that Vonage encrypts the provisioning file and does not allow you to use non-locked adapters with their service. Is that correct?

The seller asserts that this is new, unlocked SPA 2002, but I've seen at least one post that suggests that all 2002s are affiliated with a VOIP company. True? If so, how do I keep my 2002 unlocked?
