That's true for my Vonage line but not my CDV, which sounds as good as a landline no matter who is doing what on our home network. And with the triple play bundle I think it's like a dollar more than the Vonage.
To be fair to Vonage I never enabled QoS on my router, so I know I could get better quality out of it. But if I could get a second CDV line for the same price as the bundled one, I'd probably ditch Vonage. But I don't think they have "quadruple play".
I can see why so many people are switching. My other voice option here in Spokane is Qwest, and last I talked with them, their "special" was $28.99 a month for local only, and they had so many different long distance plans they couldn't even keep their own plans straight.
Skype is solid too. I've been thinking of buying a wi-fi phone for Skype and having one less router in the basement, and using it on the road too. |
