it's a sad day when comcrap comes out ahead of incumbent VOIP provider EVEN when they are charging more for the same service.
It's not the same service... Comcast VoIP is actually better than Vonage in our area. Not to mention it's a dedicated line unlike Vonage, and has VoIP priority unlike Vonage. No more muffled voices or dropped calls when uploading either

Re: sigh

it doesnt impact upload or download of user as its on a diff. portion of bandwidth used by emta so I would think net-neutrality wouldnt apply.

Depending on which definition you have of net neutrality.

If they allow other VOIP services to use the dedicated bandwidth for no additional fee to the company, then it's not. That's probably not what they're doing. Hence why they can charge more for a "better service". The incumbant plan will be to rinse and repeat this for all internet services so they can capture the revenue for all their "better services". When in fact the service is exactly the same/or worse.
