Vonage Bruiser,
The intercom is certainly a potential problem - the main reason
Bruiser,
The intercom is certainly a potential problem - the main reason for disconnecting the outside phone company wiring is to prevent an unexpected electrical charge from hitting your phone adapter (PAP2 in this case). I'm assuming there is some sort of electrical current running through the internal lines if it is connected to your intercom. For THAT reason, there could be a danger in connecting the PAP2 to those wires - this would still be a problem, though, even if you moved the PAP2. In other words, in MY MIND, I would not want to connect my Vonage adapter to a phone line that is also connected to an intercom.
Now . . . whether or not that is the reason it didn't work at all is another matter and one that I'm not sure of.
First - have you checked the Vonage adapter since connecting it to a home phone jack (with intercom) to be sure it still works - in other words, phone plugged directly into the PAP2? Just want to be sure the intercom voltage didn't damage the PAP2.
Assuming the PAP2 still works fine, it is probably time to dig deeper into your detailed situation over in the hard wiring forum.
Also, you had not mentioned the intercom in earlier posts - do you know anything else specific about how your home phone lines are wired? As I've said, the method we've talked about here works with standard residential phone wiring, but there are certainly things that can be done with phone wiring that would keep it from working (this method would not work in my home, for instance, but I personally wired my home and I know why it won't work and what will work instead - the next guy in my house might not :) )
