Here's the deal.... I started to have some problems with my DTivo not being successful with calling home. The problem is not Vonage at all even though they think it is... The problem is with Tivo's modem's. I just attached a Roadster 36k external modem to my tivo (purchased from Weakness preconfigured) entered the dial prefix of ,#319 and have been connecting without any problems at through Vonage.
Simply put.... If you need your Tivo to be able to call home through Vonage you must attach an external modem and have Tivo use it to make it's calls home.

Some of the newer Tivo boxes are working with Vonage service. Although looks like Vonage doesnt support it http://www.vonage.com/learn_equipment.php and ther reason behind that I think is Vonage dial tone is not real dial tone that a modem requires. My opinion is that the handshake need to make the Tivo call is much much different than a normal PSTN dial tone. Thats why the use of ,#319 scenario.

I'm using a series 1 and it makes the daily call successfully. I had to set the bandwidth saver to highest quality on the website, though. Without that, it would not make a call.
