SPECIALLY THAT I AM IN SOUTH FLORIDA WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED MAJOR DISASTER AREA DUE TO HURRICANE WILMA, NO DIAL TONE, NO 911 EMERGENCY CALLS........ THIS IS VERY BAD, BAD, BAD[U]
AND IT IS NOT ADELPHIA'S PROBLEM IS Vonage, PRETTY SOON FOR ME WILL BE BON VOYAGE Vonage
There is still NO information on Vonage website as of now, 9:30pm EST. This is NOT professional. Very disappointed in Vonage for this lack of information to its clients.
I have the same problem. I lost service this afternoon and can't access the secure Vonage site for my account information nor can I access the Vonage.com site.
Peering is the practice of exchanging Internet traffic between the data networks of different Internet service providers. It involves three elements:
the physical interconnection of the networks, technical liaison between the networks to allow exchange of routes, and the commercial and contractual peering agreements.
Internet service providers (ISPs) set up peering points, the physical locations where exchanges happen and negotiate peering agreements (which are essentially legal contracts setting out the exact details of how traffic is to be exchanged). Most peering points are located in colocation centres, where the different network operators 'co-locate' their Points of Presence.
apparently there is already some sort of documentation of the problem with the following reference: CIR13477192.
wonder if Adelphia got de-peered by another ISP for lack of payment...
