Never been a fan of the phone adapters/routers, have always used Asterisk or
Asterisk @Home aka Trixbox.

Broadvoice sucks, they use to be good a long time ago and then had issues
with support and quality of service.
I like Axvoice.com , at the same time you might want to check out rnk

I also use quantumvoice.com for a residental 1800 number.
