Vonage Yup, that's the trick. The units have a certain amount of memory and a certain amount
Yup, that's the trick. The units have a certain amount of memory and a certain amount of power to play with. When you try to make them do something different, there are frequently tradeoffs.
I expect that's why they messed up the stability of the WRTP54G, and hosed up Caller ID for others, etc etc. They are trying different things to make EVERYTHING work, and those of us on the "fringes" (like me pounding the heck out of my router on BitTorrent, and others with semi-"marginal" caller ID setups) get hosed.
As Scotty would say, the adapter reaches a point where "she canna give any more, captain", and Vonage has to do their best to compromise.
Maybe lowering the REN was meant to send a clearer caller ID signal, or a cleaner dial tone. Maybe it never got lowered, but got INCREASED, and the new REN is overwhelming some Caller ID systems with too much power or some new interference caused by the extra power or over-driving the ringer in the adapter.
That's why I'm considering one of the older WRT54GS (pre-V5) routers to put in front of my Vonage WRTP54G unit. 24MB of processing power and Linux. It's easy to write external firmware when you aren't trying to cram all this stuff in 8MB or less. ;)
