[Hidden-tech] vonage comments?

[mcm at mcmvoices.com]

I had Vonage for a year and a half and am in the process of giving it up.
Sound quality has been pretty poor for me.

And frankly, I got tired of connectivity issues.  Any time I had to do any
rerouting of my internet lines, the Vonage modem added a layer of complexity
that got old.   Getting the phone up and running was always a challenge and
never worked the same way twice.  Once it took a good hour on the phone with
tech support (in India) to figure out what the problem was (and the tech I
was talking to ended up having to get his superwisor in on it).

hello all,

I'm wondering what people's experience with Vonage (internet phone)  
is.  I don't mean to open pandora's box again but, it's always nice  
to hear your thought before I click "buy now".  Your comments would  
be appreciated before I make the plunge into the digital depths  ...

Regards,


Tom Adams
