Vonage Hi Steve, I am experiencing the same symptoms It gets to the point where it freezes



Hi Steve, I am experiencing the same symptoms It gets to the point where it freezes up my computer internet, it drops AIM and gives page load timeouts on Firefox. I had replaced the router this weekend with a Netgear 108. Seemed ok for a couple of minutes, then back to the old tricks. I replaced the Comcast cable modem today (wednesday). This time,. I got an hour out of it. Weekend before was maddening, I could get maybe 2 minutes of phone per hour with the calls dropping like flies. With the new router, the calls dont drop any more, but the quality is impossible.

I followed the instructions you gave to the other member in here. The results were VERY ugly, to say the least. I tested with the Vonage box in, then unplugged. The drop rate was 3.31with the Vonagte box attached, and went to 3.17 with the Vonage disconnected. The second results are posted below:

which looks like I am losing nearly 80% packets.
I will be going back to Comcast tomorrow. It might be a bad line in their neighborhood. Another thread mentioned it.

It seemed to come in when the hot weather jumped in, sdo it sounds like an outdoor source here.

Any suggestions or anything else I can do? The cable is 400 feet buried 3 feet deep to the roadway. At my house, it comes out of a pipe and into a connector, then into the house, maybe 1 foot of connection.

How about if you plug the Vonage box directly into the modem, eliminating the router

Have you tried the re-test with the Vonage box completely removed from the setup?

You may be marginally satisfied with the results you're getting today, but I doubt
