Ok first of all.. with my PBX at work *I* can call your bank with your phone number... CID spoofing is extremely easy.. ever hear of camophone.com ? It's been around for ages.. anyone doing security based on CID is stupid.
How exactly is your neighbor's computer going to sniff your RTP traffic? Your RTP traffic does not bounce off your neighbors computer... it goes from YOU to Vonage. The ONLY (this has been said in this thread how many times??) way to listen in on the conversation would be to compromise a ROUTER along the way. And even then that doesn't mean anything. You'd have to have a way to CAPTURE the packets from the router and dump them to a file. It's not a trivial task and it CAN NOT be done from your NEIGHBORS computer!!!!! Your Vonage traffic does NOT bounce off other people's computers therefore they CAN NOT listen, capture, hear your conversation. And if a router were to be cracked somewhere along the way there would be other issues of concern.
Actually many cable modem networks do allow neighbors to sniff other neighbors traffic. It has nothing to do with traffic "bouncing" as you call it - it has everything to do with being on the same subnet.
