Frank,

can you please try that with another phone or softphone ?
You will then know if it's the Linksys which is faulty or your provider.

Also, you can try to upgrade the ATA to the latest firmware.
I recently bought a PAP2T, and the firmware on that was not the latest  
one (it was v4, but v5 is the current version).
