How do you get to do that?

I must be blind.

Thanks,
Will

BTW be sure to send me a refer a friend...

you get two months free and i'll get a month free... hehe

[PCTech]

referal sent! After you sign on if you transfer your #, it gave me a virtual #, you can call it and it will send you an email with the temp, pin to your voice mail! then After you have it set up, it really serves no purpose until you get your stuff in the mail, but after you get it you can use the virtual # to actually call people until the transfer is complete, and it will be seamless! meaning you nor anyone else will know about the transfer!

Yea me too. hehe

If all goes as plan and am happy after a month or so I will hook up my grandparantes and all my friends. hehe I'll have two years free in no time. If only u could.

OH and thank god accroding to Vonage its:

90 Kilobits per second (Kbps) requried per phone

like fire fox said..just clad its kilobits per second instead of kilobytes...

see:



I am assuming that is upload bandwidth. They really should make their web site clear about that. Should add download bandwidth requried as well if thats indeed upload requried or the other way around.

As long as you do not use the 3-way calling feature, the lowest bandwidth 30Kbps should work just fine for you. I have mine set that way and I think it sounds fine.

[PCTech]

good thing its kbits per sec, and not bytes huh? or else a bunch of us would be screwed! well i'm glad, and I can't wait to get my vonage package! oh yah war, be sure you fill out the "Letter of Authorization" to release your current# so you can xfer it to vonage
