Vonage Just a post about this user's experience with Vonage after a month of service.
Just a post about this user's experience with Vonage after a month of service.
First, the manuals shipped with the ATA (Moto version) are rather vague. However by reviewing the comments in this forum and at dslreports web site installation is quite simple. Once you understand the concepts.
Access the ATA using your web browser pointed to 192.168.102.1 and assigns an IP address and subnet mask. Enter the IP addresses of your Gateway and your ISP DNS servers. In the Advanced Config Tab; deselect the DHCP/NAT option.
I tried putting the ATA in front of the router and behind with good results in either position. Having the ATA in front of the router required using a static IP address. Placing the device behind the router one can use a private IP address. For security purposes, it appears to be the best practice to have the ATA behind the router.
So far the quality of the voice has been very good and consistent with only a couple of "beeps" on the line once and a faint "whooshing" sound but that seems to have cleared up. Using a good quality phone and keeping it away form electronic interference does make a difference.
Now for the "impressive features".
Took the ATA with me to a well-known hotel in Boston that provides T-1 line access in the guest rooms. Plugged the ATA in and "voila" .. Dial tone!
Was able to access the Internet and place calls using the small portable phone I brought along. Worked like a charm!
Took the ATA to a friend’s house this weekend that had Cable Internet access. Plugged the adapter into their Linksys wireless router. After setting the ISP's DNS addresses, once again, Internet access on for my laptop and dial tone on the phone.
Complaints: None, other than the manuals
Positives: Flexibility, portability and cost savings.
Bottom Line: It’s a BIG WINNER! ... Waiting for the reaction from the BELLS ... "This changes EVERYTHING!"
:D
