Vonage comcast (at least here where i am) uses dhcp, so its not a static ip. im positive
comcast (at least here where i am) uses dhcp, so its not a static ip. im positive the adapter is being assigned an ip as i can use the voice response menu (a phone connected to the adapter) and enter the proper command and it will give me the assigned ip.
i dont honestly think at this point that the pap2 is bad. this is the second one we've had, the original one wouldnt connect the phone either, so we exchanged it for this second one. unfortunately, same exact thing is happening. constant power light, flashing ethernet light (the activity flashing on the adapter is in exact cadence with the activity light on the modem), and dark phone lights.
bussetech, that is indeed the setup we are currently using. prior to getting the phone adapter, we had each pc connected to the hub independantly, but we didnt want to pay for a third ip, so switched to this current configuration. its working fine for internet purposes, so we'll stick with it assuming we can get the phone working.
our modem does not have a router, and as you found out, neither does the adapter. the pap2 is a pretty simplistic adapter, we should have been able to just plug it into the hub and go, but alas it doesnt seem to be that easy.
we contacted tech support today from a pay phone, but the only ideas they could give are ones we've already gone through. they insist we need a phone at home to be able to troubleshoot the Vonage service, which simply isnt possible right now. if i get a phone at home, then i wont need Vonage in the first place.
