I ordered the $14.99 a month, 500 minute local/long distance plan. With local taxes and fees it came to $18.89 a month.
I have Vonage installed on Comcast HSI / BEFSR81 Linksys Router. I have the D-Link VTA adapter.
I ordered Vonage service through their website on Thursday October 26, 2006. I received the equipment on Monday, October 30 and installed & configured during the afternoon using the Quick Setup instructions. Absolutely no problems at all, and was up and making calls in about 10 minutes. The call quality is excellent . . . much better than the previous carrier (Verizon) I had for the last 20 years.
And to top off a GREAT experience . . . I received an email that Monday night my number was successfully transferred as of midnight. That's 4 days, two of which were on the weekend.
That's just . . .. well . . . excellent.
I hope the rest of my experiences with Vonage are as pleasant as the order process, install and number transfer was. I am VERY pleased with my Vonage service.
The only downside I've seen so far is the lack of call blocking and anonymous call rejection, which I desperately needed during the November elections.
05/10/07 - Well, Vonage finally release anonymous call rejection but the ability to block SPECIFIC phone numbers is still not available. Still . . . its' a step in the right direction.
