Vonage Reviews

Vonage I have a Motorola SB5120 and I am now running into the imfamous call drop out problem.

I have a Motorola SB5120 and I am now running into the imfamous call drop out problem. I searched the forums and many people suggested just buying another modem. Are any cable modems known to work better with Vonage?

Here is my setup:
cable > Moto SB5120 > Linksys RT31P2

I have TimeWarner Cable modem (recently bought out from Comcast)

Firmware SB5120-2.19.0.6-SCM05-NOSH
Firmware RT31P2 1.30.01

Here is the Vonage upload/download test when NOT using the Voip I get:

When I am using the Voip I get a 10X drop in the upload rate (verified this multilple times):

I have run this comparison several time and I always see about a 10X drop in my upload rate.

When I consider this data and all the problems reported for the SB5120 I think the problem is in the SB5120.
