Hi Nickwe - See answers below to your questions.

With my Voxalot account, I'll be able to have multiple trunk when I dial out, I think I got that, but will I be able to have multiple identities to receive inbound call?

I'm using an ATA (SPA3102) where I can already define multiple gateway:
1: FWD
2: voipbusterpro
3: sipphone
Unfortunately I think I can just manage to have one of them online as an Identity to receive VoIP call :-( So peoples on the two other networks can't join't me (except maybe by sipbroker and their special number but that's not the point).

So if I put my future Voxalot account on my ATA and that I configure my three accounts on my Voxalot account, will I be joignable on those three accounts for inbound call trough my ATA? Would be great but I guess not?

The Answer is Yes - You will have to set up all three accounts in Voxalot and set SIP register to Yes. An alternative is to also have your VSP forward all calls to your Voxalot SIP URI assuming they support this function.

Voxalot allows you to have more than four identites. Perhaps another forum memeer can answer your question about other ATAs that support more than four identities.

I'm in Mauritius with VoIP and I want to call Belgium on PSTN, my VSP is in Australia, where will go my call trough?

1. Mauritius => Australia (VSP) => Belgium (during all the conversation)

NO.

YES

And finally, what make a VSP better than an other in term of "voice quality" and "time delay" saying that there would all use the same codec compression? That join my precedent question I think, but never know?

Thanks for your help!

A good ADSL connection with a quality router and QOS for VoIP will help.
The VSP to select is the ones that give you the best rates to the destinations you are calling - where they are located is not necessarily an issue as long as they offer a good service at a good rate. Perhaps some one else can answer your voice quality question.
