GSM gateways



Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience of GSM gateways?  I have none, but
think they sound like a good idea and I'm thinking of using one on
PAYG in my holiday home rather than install a fixed phone line to
save the installation charge and ground rent on the line.

There seem to be a lot of different ones around and found this
website www.gsm-fct-gateways.co.uk who have a good range, but haven't
got back to me yet.

What I want to know is:
1. are they seamless as a phoneline - i.e. do they give a dial tone
on pick up,
2. could I connect Comfort to it as the main phoneline (i.e. avoid
the UCM GSM)
3. finally possibly with the addition of a suitable router could I
avail of GPRS/EDGE for a WAN connection?

The last point is the nice to have but the first two are must haves.

Thanks

Pete
