UPDATE: As of 4/11/2020, I am still with Vonage. I have made some changes such as upgrading my home alarm system to one that uses a cellular single. However, I still like having a home phone line. Voange is still great for that reason.....a backup phone line. UPDATE: As of 3/22/2019, I am still with Vonage. I managed to get my home alarm system upgraded to cellular monitoring where it no longer runs over my phone lines and conflicts with Vonage. Although I use my home phone very little, I prefer to have one for those occasional faxes and calls to my home number. Vonage is worth the $19 a month...much better than $30+ over AT&T U-Verse or Comcast Xfinity phone. UPDATE: As of 2/7/2017, I decided to stay with Vonage. I was going to move to another VOIP provider because their prices were going to jump a bit after my intro was up. They decided to keep me at $9.99 for life which turns into nearly $19 after "fees". It is still pretty rock solid so I believe I will be staying with Vonage for the foreseeable future. UPDATE: As of 1/25/2016, I'm back with Vonage. Xfinity could not beat the pricing. Also, I don't use my home phone much. It is more so for the house alarm than anything else. I occasionally fax but that's about it. UPDATE: As of 7/1/2015, I went back to Comcast's Xfinity phone service. They offered me a package I could not refuse. So long, Vonage. You did good while I had the service. I switched from Xfinity Voice to Vonage about a year ago. They sent me an offer I couldn't refuse - $9.99 unlimited calling (local / national) with the features I need on a home phone. I received the self-install kit which was very easy to set up. I logged in and set up my profile and was on in less than 10 minutes. They sent the standard Vonage Box. It gets the job done. Sometimes, I run into an issue where the box does not automatically reconnect to the network if there is a power outage. I have to power cycle it. It looks like the ethernet connection is not recognized (or lit up). The call quality is generally fine. Occasionally, callers hear my home alarm picking up as a fax on the line when they call. I am lowering the bandwidth usage to see if that may help. Overall, I am happy with the switch. It works and when it doesn't, calls are automatically routed to my cell. member for 20.2 years, 2899 visits, last login: 4 days ago updated 3 years ago
