Using Vonage in INDIA

Posts: 47 · Full Forum Member Joined: Apr 08, 2005 Posts: 47

Hello Vijay,

Try to troubleshoot the issue "no dial tone" as per the manual of your phone adapter. I had PAP2 and now I am able to use it. My network is as follows:

BSNL ISP - Huawei 882>USB Port to PC>Ethernet port to PAP2.

Basically you have to have your ISP set the modem on PPPOE & always on option. Then I manually configured PAP2 to new ip address, subnet mask, gateway ip.

Thanks
Anu

Hi Dinglo,
Here is my issue, pls try to help me out on this.

Hi my wife is in India and she has taken our Vonage VOIP adapter there. She is facing lots of problems getting connected. This is the problem that she is facing.

1) We have a Broad band internet connection from Airtel services
2) She has connected the Ethernet port of Cable modem given by touchtel directly (without a router) to the WAN port of the VOIP adapter (Motorola VT1000), the line1 of the VOIP adaper to the telephone and the rest of the power connection also had been established. She has not connected a computer to this circuit as it worked without it in the US.
2a) She then tried the power on sequence.
3) The Power light in the VOIP adapter (Motorola VT1000) first went thro' the blink sequence and started glowing constant.
4) when she picked up the telephone receiver, she was not able to get the dial tone at all. but when I tried to dial the VOIP telephone number from US, am able to hear the ring tone.

Pls let me know what I should be doing to get the things going. I called up customer support, that did not help in any way.

Vijay

I have 'heard' of people who have successfully connected using vonage in several locations using various providers such as:
Hathway
BSNL
Tata Indicom
Airtel

I have 'heard' of people doing it in Chennai and in Hyderabad.

The key is that it is different for each provider but the logic is common based on the type of the adaptor.

So if any one is having problems, please post the specific adaptor device model and your ISP name, I can help you out.

Regards,
Dingloo

Hi,

First ask Airtel to set your modem to PPPOE & always on option. Then use the PAP2 troubleshooting guide to resolve the "no dial tone" problem. Most imp. is to follow chapter 4 of the manual.

Let me know if you have any problem. Don't worry it definately works with Airtel. One of my friend is already using it.

Thanks
Anu

Hi Anu,

I have a similar problem to yours - the phone led on the PAP2 is not lit.

My set up is also similar: Airtel Broadband - Dlink DSL-502T modem>USB port to PC>Ethernet port to PAP2.

Could you please let me know how you resolved your problem? It might help me deal with mine.

Thanks & Regards,
Shrikanth

Hi,

Well I have been using it for the past couple of months from india. My friend was using it 6 months back and then only It occurred to me and brought my router with me. Setting up differs between the ISP that you subscribe to. Most likely you will be using a DSL with static IP. In that case you have to configure your router settings with the network setup required by your ISP and your PC should use DHCP.

I successfully configured and using it. Its been great. Sound/Call quality is as good as it was in US. Vonage rocks. So far I haven't come across any articles or information that prohibits us from using this in india. So if you find any please do let me/everyone know.

Regards
