"Excellent value for the features. LNP for Moncton New Brunswick"
"If ISP goes down, your phone goes down. No individual call number blocking"
"Great way to cut expenses without giving up too much."

Joined Vonage August 2007. Received my Motorola VT 2542 within 4 days of ordering. LNP transfer was held up by Aliant not releasing the line to Vonage. Basic install time 2 minutes. Actual install time about 1 hour.
Installation: Once I figured out how to disable the outside phone line to my house, installation was a snap.
Special Installation: Motorola VT2542 QOS is not robust enough to handle simulative use of Vonage, Slingbox, Bittorrenting and websurfing. Needed to put the Motorola unit behind a WRT54G with Tomato firmware to handle the QOS. This setup is flawless. With my 10 MB down and 1 MB upload cable internet connection maxed out, calls are still (for the most part) crystal clear.
Vonage comes with an amazing set of FREE features. The one feature it's missing is individual call number blocking.
Another feature that saves me lots of money is the ability of family and friends to use local access numbers in their cities to call me toll free. The saving money comes cause I pay the cell phones bills of my 2 kids in university.
Over all, jump IN! The service is great!
