As a general point with Iberbanda, make a hard copy note somewhere of your IP address, gateway and DNS servers. You will need them to configure a router anyway

Well, unless you have opted for a static IP address I wouldn't bother, and you may end up having problems!  The normal vanilla version of Iberbanda has a dynamic IP so if you set your IP in anything then you are asking for trouble!

All the wireless boxes should come with a built in DHCP server and will also dynamically obtain both the IP address and DNS server addresses directly from Iberbanda.  Some of them come with a client for ddns (dynamic DNS services) where you can get free DNS names and the router will automatically update the DNS table if your IP address changes.

If you want email accounts and webspace you need to email soporte@avired.com with your NIE number and request the email that you want, and a couple of options.  If it's available they will set it up and send you instructions on how to use it.  They are POP accounts but they also have a web interface if you don't want to use a POP client.


As for WiFi phones, I use a Nokia 5800 with an application called Fring as a VOIP client, and voipcheap.co.uk for calls - works fine! Also I have a Linksys PAP2 VOIP adaptor that I have permanantly connected with a UK phone number - also works a treat!  I sell PAP2 VOIP units if anyone is interested :)
