Vonage Reaches Major Milestone With Its First Technology Patent
- Invention covers how a virtual phone number connects a long distance phone
call -
HOLMDEL, N.J., July 10, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/
-- Vonage, a leading provider of digital phone services, today announced it
recently received approval of its first internally developed patent, called
"Method and Apparatus for Placing a Long Distance Call Based on a Virtual Phone
Number." The invention allows customers to use a virtual number to contact
parties at distant locations without incurring long distance charges.
"This is a major milestone for Vonage as we continue to keep innovation at
the heart of our corporate value system," said Jeffrey Citron, Vonage Chairman,
Chief Strategist and Interim CEO. "We are pleased to have secured this patent,
and the depth of talent and creativity here at Vonage that it reflects."
Comcast and Vonage Form Collaboration to Address Network Management and Better Meet Customer Needs
PHILADELPHIA, PA and HOLMDEL, NJ, July 9, 2008 -- Comcast Corporation and
Vonage Holdings Corporation announced today a collaborative agreement to address
the reasonable network management of Internet services. Comcast committed to
work together with Vonage to ensure that network management techniques are
chosen that effectively balance the need to avoid network congestion with the
need to ensure that over-the-top VoIP services like Vonage work well for
consumers.
"This agreement helps Vonage to ensure that customers have the best possible
Internet experience," said Louis Mamakos, Vonage Chief Technology Officer.
"Although we're competitors with Comcast, this understanding helps our two
companies work together to balance the needs of network management with
consumers' ability to freely access the services, applications and content of
their choice."
In the Forums What poster asks, "What does *99 do?" Great question! The answer is that *99 sets the bandwidth saver to High with some adapters. Brian188 adds, "any Linksys adapter *99 places the adapter in Modem Pass through mode. Similar to fax pass through. Essentially it turns off Echo cancel, call waiting, silence suppression, and DTMF transfer. To use the highest bandwidth setting you either need to have it set that way in the Vonage control panel or dial *017110 from your phone. There is no charge for either the bandwidth settings, or the modem pass through."
In the Forums A new Vonage subscriber with a cool Darth Vader avatar posts his first thread titled, 'New subscriber here - anything important I should know?'. Several Vonage Forum regulars gave him a nice warm welcome and gave him some tips about the DD-WRT router, QoS, and Vonage alpha. Go stop by and give him a warm welcome and feel free to post some Vonage tips.
