You have the option of running any number of SIP softphones on
Windows, and *nix and can use the free VoIP services of iptel.org
and even some free PSTN gateways that are out there.

You can also be your own service provider; I run Sip Express Router
on OpenBSD and for the PBX side of it, Asterisk on Linux (although
I would prefer BSD if FXS telephony hardware was supported).

I had major Vonage problems;

- so I emailed them constantly, ****ed & moaned & called their service
shoddy and their support unacceptable
and
said it was a company , designed solely to make a few top people
Obscenely Rich
and
said I WOULD NOT recommend their FUKCING GDDOAMM service to ANYONE !
and
EVENTUALLY

they started answering my calls after 1 - 2 rings..

and they shipped me a new router ( rebuilt)

and ( so far) it works.. OK . . .

Cheap; and at a price..

I should also have mentioned IP telephones and SIP ATAs (analog
phone adapters, e.g. Grandstream) -- many low cost examples are
for sale on eBay. I recommend IP phones made by Teliann.

OK, I have about 15 email accounts.

I am going to start sending 12 emails every hour or so that I am close to my
office.


I will run their Maintenance Index out of site until they fix my stuff and
send me a new router to my USA address.

Cut and paste, I'm going to run their butt raged.

Regrettably, Their response is Mostly cut & paste stuff;

They are too overworked ( or unskilled ) to do much more than read off
a list.

If you hound them enough Eventually you get to Second Level support

The Cisco routers they use are kind of a shaky deal; with the Phone
ports easily ruined by static electricity;

suggest a good rugged phone line surge protector ( if there IS such a
device)


Finally, Ross Archer works for Cisco & may have some hints on bullet
proofing these small fragile routers.

I have been sending emails all day/night from all my accounts. I just sent
the FCC a note and a copy of my letter to Vonage with ticket numbers.

I don't want to get where I have two companies taking money out of the bank.

I'll move to a new company ASAP when this is over.
