Vonage Here's the trick: you need a LONG outgoing message to make this happen, and the
Here's the trick: you need a LONG outgoing message to make this happen, and the person has to hang up early in the announcement. Here is the test: if you call your number, and hang up diuring the message, does your answerphone immediatly hand up, or does it play out the entire message and then hang up when it hears no caller?
On mine it plays out the message (which is 1 minute long, it's a doctor's message and there are instructions to the patient on it) and then records what's there. If the person listened to most of the message, then when it gets time to recording the message, there is silence. The answerphone "hears" nothing and hangs up.
But if the person hangs up early on, the answerphone keeps the line on, as the message plays out. After about 30 seconds or so, the incoming call starts producing a fast busy signal. When the announcement ends and it's time to record, the answerphone "hears" the beeps and thiinks it's a message. It then records until its recording timeout is reached.
I realize that this is a special case. Most people have very short messages, so with the hang up, the process of not hanging up wouldn't be noticed since the elasped time from hang up to beginnign of recording is short. Since its short, there isn't time to get the beeps.
I realize the fix is to shorten the message, but does anyone else have any other ideas? This is not a problem with Verizon, whiich hangs up the answerphone when the caller hangs up. The Vonage hang up is different and non standard, I would assume

I hear ya. I'm sure this must be a common issue, esp w/ these RTP300s.
