I need a cheap simple adaptor for analog phones to use with Asterisk. It
should be some kind of "configure and forget" type of device, to use at
the office, or just throw it in a road warrior's bag and use it while
travelling, to call back to the "mothership"


For travelling, no SIP based device will be "configure and forget".
Perhaps if you travel only within the US, you may be lucky most of the
time but pretty much anywhere else where IP addresses are scarce you
will be out of luck.


If you have a Linux laptop with you, then in fact the SIP devices can be configured to "hide" behind it. The laptop can then run an instance of asterisk that connects to the "home" asterisk server, and with the asterisk server on the laptop handling the NAT issues, it's pretty much plug and play anywhere in the world. I've even had mine going when I'm in a "double-NAT" situation.


This overcomes the codec situation with the iaxy mentioned in another mail in this thread.
