Vonage?

selena · 2006-03-30, 04:45 PM

Well, I signed up and got my router a day or so ago. I have yet to set down and actually do all the hookups. I need to do it this weekend, before my number transports over to them.

What I got was a Linksys Wireless G Broadband router. I ordered it from Vonage, so hopefully it is what I need. Not sure if I plug the existing netgear router into the new router, or run all my stuff through the new one.

Once I get that figured out, then I will attempt making it work on all the jacks. I found a really good diagram of what to do online once. Of course, like a dumbass, I didn't keep the link.

Vonage is so easy to install that even a Dallas Cowboy fan might be able to do it

I use Sun Rocket because that damned Spookyx mentioned it to me. I'd say that we are overall pleased with them and our phone bill is less than half of what it used to be, but there are a couple annoyances. When I call out, it tends to take a few seconds before I hear it ringing on the other end. And, during the occasional call, I hear myself echoing. Luckily that doesn't happen enough for me to do anything about it. I have had a couple instances where people have asked if I was still there, but I think that is due to my lack of interest in what they were saying.

Are sure that's your voice echoing? I always figured you had many voices in that head of yours

I've been using Vonage a little over a month now, and I really like it. No problems here. I also like all the extra features. I was getting voice mails in my email before I even got the linksys router, at the time, I didn't even know it was an option. So far, so good

Hey now, I resemble that remark!!!

Don't pay attention to Sir Moby. He is stalking me for my collection of Cowboys clothing.

I got Vonage going, and it wasn't a problem. I haven't tried to do the thing about making it live on all the phone lines yet, however.
