Vonage Hi, my first post here, I hope its acceptable, my Vonage has been rock solid until
Hi, my first post here, I hope its acceptable, my Vonage has been rock solid until I got a new router last autumn. I could do with some help to try and sort it out, thanks in advance.
Problem: frequently dropped calls.
Location: Milford, CT
ISP:Cablevision, Optimum Online, Cable

Modem: 3Com CMX
Vonage Adaptor: VT1005
Wireless Router: Netgear WGT624
Setup: 3COM > WGT624 > VT1005 & Clients
VT1005 config changes, NAT/DCHP disabled.
Issue: Had Vonage for over a year now, originally with a Siemens Wireless router and it was rock solid. I changed the router to the Netgear (to get 80211g) and dropped calls started occurring. I put the VT1005 before the router but it started interfering with my internet connection so I put it back behind the modem. I did turn if NAT/DHCP on the VT1005 because I was concerned it may be banging heads with the netgear. Still the same prob, frequent dropped calls. Incidentally how can I get to the motos web page, in front of the netgear its 192.168.100.1 but I can't get to it when its behind the netgear.
At this point I wouldn't mind getting a new router if someone can recommend one that won't break the bank and works well with Vonage.

Same name, same town, same cablevision.

I was vaguely aware of it but I thought the problem was my netgear.
