Vonage Sorry guys. I have a RTP300 and it sucks. The first one I received from Vonage was
Sorry guys. I have a RTP300 and it sucks. The first one I received from Vonage was DOA (bad power adaptor). They sent me a new one, and allthough it "works", I have issues with it all the time. First problem is that the MAC address cloning on it sucks. My ISP locks the Cable Modem down to one MAC so I have to clone my working one. Well for some reason it works the first time, but when it renews it's IP (2 days later) the router freezes, and I have to reboot it. On the cable modem logs, it says "unautherized user". I got around that problem by giving my ISP the routers MAC instead of cloning the old one.
Second problem. The router gets hot as H3LL! I had it stacked on my other linksys (wrv54g) and it would overheat and crash every week. I'm telling you it would get hot enough to burn to the touch. I ended up putting it on a wire rack so air would circulate all around it. This has worked enough to keep it cooler.
Third problem. I now have it "stable" enough to have it work for 1 month straight. Problem is, thats not good enough for me. Every month I have to restart it, cause it gets unstable. By unstable I mean, no voicemail, no dial tone, calls not comming through.
It's just a hassle. When it works, it works good, but there are too many problems with it. The thing weighs like 2 ounces so you know there is about 10 cents worth of parts in there. To me it's just a cheap plasic thing that they mass produced with no quality in mind. I have a WRV54G and that thing is amazing. I think I had it running for a year straight without any problems. If Linksys made a product like that with Voip, I'd be all over it. But RTP300 is not that.
