Re: [Phone] Confused

Yes. In fact when I had Vonage every time I would max out my connection I would lose dial tone.

With Mediacom Phone this never happens. This alone is worth $5 extra I pay each month.

That was my opinion also, but the other thing is when you bring this up to your provider the only suggestion they have is to switch isp's (not an option), or upgrade your speed.

I pay $10 extra per month for my POTS line with unlimited long distance and calling features not offered by Mediacom, no 911 issues, up time better than 5 nines (99.999). I have never seen the appeal of Mediacom phone service that is only $10 less per month that what I currently pay for my traditional land line.

What telco? Sounds like a good deal. The last time I had Qwest it was basic unlimited local service with no added features and it was around $21/mo. They increased it to about $24 around the time I canceled.

So in my case, Qwest offers far less value compared to Mediacom.

My phone uptime is pretty close to 99.999%. In other words I don't remember the last time I had an issue or a dropped all.
