Re: More details needed

Magic jack meet ATA I use it while traveling the world , plug in the ata any where I have data and away I go works great.

Plus it's cheap , If I lose the ata no big deal it's easy to disable on my side and they are cheap on ebay. Something like $20

I didn't understand your comment. Are you saying 1) MJ is an ATA? Or, 2) that you obtained your SIP credentials and are using them with a generic ATA?

1) You're right that MJ is technically an ATA. I meant an ATA which you can plug into a router for always-on telephone service without the need to keep your computer turned on, or cobble together a "thin client."

2) That violates MJ's ToS. They have terminated users in the past. And, have taken steps to obfuscate the credentials to prevent people from doing it (causing illicit ATA users to lose service for days or weeks until they can hack the credentials again.).

Right on both.

on #2 It's all good they terminate me I will just go grab another and do it again.

I use my sip info on my droid when in the us over 3g , and I also use it when I travel anywhere with an ata. And if they change it again I drop back to usb for awhile until it's fixed.

Worse case I can move to another voip provider and do the same I do now for a little bit more. I also have the ability to roll my own voip and terminate it at my home win win for me.
