[VoIP] ATAs and Gateways

[john jones]

John,

I have unlocked a 186.  It required a PIC/Flash
programmer to dump the contents of the flash and look
in a certain area of memory ( I don't remember but can
send it to you ).  


If the flash chip is socketed, you could send it to me
and I can unlock it, or I can send you info on the
programmer (~$40)
