Vonage Well I got through to tech support yesterday. Went through the initial call screener,
Well I got through to tech support yesterday. Went through the initial call screener, who put me through to Advanced support... Then after a few minutes I got forwarded to level two support (third person). The level two support made a few claims:
1) Said he is prohibited from releasing the SIP IP addresses.
2) Claimed that even if I found them, it wouldn't work.
3) Claimed the addresses continually cycle to prevent it from working.
4) Claimed it was a security concern to prevent DrDoS attacks.
#1) I can believe
#2) Conflicts with some of the info I find here.
#3) Leads me to believe that Vonage has given a few hardware providers their cycling algorithm if they work at all. This means only Vonage blessed HW should work, since no one else would know the timings. I don't know if I believe this since I think there are some people here who've had success with unBlessed HW... True?
#4) I'm not a firm believer in security through obscurity. Eventually people will find their servers, so best to make them public and bulletproof rather than hidden and vunerable. Who knows perhaps they are actually hidden and bulletproof. If that is the case than I can understand their logic.
In light of these points I will probably take my SIP business elsewhere. I'll probably keep my main vonage line, but shopping around now, Vonage is far from the only carrier anymore.
I've signed on with quite a few of the free carriers that I won't name here, but I got to admit, I'm impressed.
