reconfiguring existing Vonage accounts

Hi

I currently have a vonage accounts in 3 different locations, 2 business and 1 residential. I disconnected from the dsl in one of the business locations and currently have that number forwarding to my other business location. I would like to disconnect the dsl from my remaining business location.

I need to have one VM for business and one for residential and I want to keep all 3 of my current vonage phone numbers, perhaps making changing one of the business numbers to a virtual number.

Is there a way to have 3 lines coming into my home - one residential, one business phone line and one business fax line?

Thanks!

Yes, just connect 2 adapters to your home internet.

Each line will have its own voicemail.

I do the same thing (only with 2 lines) myself today.

If you are looking for them to be on the same phone (I use different phones for each system, you would need a 2 line or 3 line phone.

One catch, if you use a virtual phone number, it does not have its own voicemail.

Hope this helps.

I did see an installation diagram saying to connect an Ethernet cable from any LAN port on the router to each of the WAN ports on the Phone Adapters. I s that how you did it?

And thanks again

Yes, that's it.

Some people put the Vonage adapter in front of the main router so that it does QoS for you (depends on the adapter you have) but I have my main router do that and connect my Vonage adapters to it just as you are describing.
