Other than a different case and probably being locked to Vonage, there probably isn't much to say.
Why do you think it's a SPA-2000? |

Gainesville, VA | The VoIP technology in these boxes is from Sipura ... not Cisco. The PAP2 is functionally identical to the Sipura SPA-2000.

I wonder if that means the configuration info in the PAP2 will be enough to reveal to Sipura 2000 users a way to configure their units to work with Vonage?
I have a Sipura and would be interested in the ability to configure one of the two lines of the Sipura for Vonage--in case I ever have difficulty with my Motorola ATA. I'm in Brazil and getting a replacement for a fried Motorola would be a major, lengthy hassle.
As it now stands my backup plan is to forward my Vonage number to a Free World Dialup DID, which rings on the Sipura. |

| PAP2 and RT31P2 are UN-LOCKED Don't forget the catch - you MUST sign up with Vonage for 90 days to get the rebate from the Staples offer - with either Linksys product.
Remember, "... there ain't no free lunch"
Both products are unlocked and must be configured to connect with Vonage. Linksys Customer dis-Service isn't any help. They told me it was locked... however, the Technical Support via email states:
"The RT31P2 (router) is not locked to Vonage so it is also configurable for other VOIP SIP."
Looking through the Users Manual reveals the same information for both the PAP2 and the RT31P2.
So for $60.00 you can get a Sipura 2000...
Regarding setup for Vonage with the original Sipura... read the Linksys manual on their website... it might be enlightening.

Checked out the manual. It's not much help. What's really needed is the info used in the detailed Sipura configuration--servers, Nat settings, dial plans, etc. I'm curious to know whether the PAP2 allows access to those pages, hence the info.
Judging from this thread, it doesn't look like it.

DO NOT GET THE PAP2 or RTP31P2 IF YOU PLAN ON USING THEM WITH ANY OTHER PROVIDER (OTHER THAN VONAGE). IT IS LOCKED TO VONAGE. I HAD TO RETURN MINE TO STAPLES. |
