Hi,
I'm planning to carry my vonage box to Mumbai and my parents have the In2cable (cable modem) ISP. Will the vonage work with in2cable . Has anyone successfully tried using vonage box in mumbai and also kindly provide me with details and the ISP used for it. |

They even have cablemodems in Mumbai? Sounds like its in Africa somewhere. I would have figured they still use tin cans and string as modems. |

For the geographically challenged, Mumbai is in India. Yes, it's a poor area, with about half of the population living without electricity and running water, but the wealthy probably do have all the modern convienences. |

Like most Americans, you know next to nothing about the rest of the world. |

LMAO. I'm an American and I agree with you! Maybe he's heard of Bombay. The British couldn't pronounce Mumbai. The closest they came to it was Bombay, so it sort of stuck.

If he's ever called Vonage tech support and gotten one of the outsourced script-reading techs, he's definitely heard from Bombay.  |

maybe less than 10% without electricity
70% in the medium class (with most amenities we as americans have)
20% rich

I was just going by what my Lonely Planet book had to say about it. I've never been to India myself, but have a few good friends who are from there, and yes, they use Vonage to talk with their families. |
