Good point being rasied here. We all signed up for VoIP service that is new technology, uses the Internet (more new tech) and doesn't promise to be anything other than what they are. Yeah, it goes down a bit (but not much, imho). We have cells as backup, we save money. Seems like a fair trade to me. |

Agreed. Personally the Vonage line is the only real line in my apt. If service goes out, *shrug*. I dont make Vonage pick up the slack because of my planning. Hows that saying go?
Lack of planning on your part doesnt constitute and emergency on ours. |

I would say people are alot more dependent on cell phone service AND the coverage, call quality, customer service, etc, etc USUALLY is sub-standard. AND IT COSTS A WHOLE LOT MORE AND IT IS A GOVERNMET REGULATED Industry...
Sure makes the current state of VoIP look GREAT
"can you hear me now"?? |

I dont understand why everyone has such as major issue with Vonage going down.
I think this brings up a more important issue. It seems VoIP isn't just on the fringe anymore. Based on peoples reactions it's central to peoples lives. VoIP was (and mostly still is) a second line for people. However, people are getting more and more dependent on the service. |

In any case, I can now log into my dashboard (couldn't earlier) and I just called home and got through (to my answering machine, but the call seemed to work). So if there was a phone problem here (248) it's over now. |

I dont understand why everyone has such as major issue with Vonage going down. It happens. Yes, I know, the Telco's dont go down as often as VOIP providers go down, but guess what..
(taken from Vonage TOS)
1.10 Service Distinctions
You acknowledge and understand that the Service is not a telephone service. Important distinctions (some, but not necessarily all, of which are described in this Agreement) exist between telephone service and the enhanced Service offering provided by Vonage.
If a company says they arent a telephone service, and you're holding them to the same standards as a telephone service, it's not the company who's at fault.
If you need a reliable telephone service (business, medical issues, etc) then you should sign up with a company that says theyre a telephone service. It's really that simple.
Looking as a cell phone for a replacement?
(taken from SprintPCS's website)
Coverage is not available everywhere, nor can we guarantee you will receive coverage at all times, or without interruptions or delays (e.g., dropped calls, blocked calls, etc.) in the coverage areas we identify. Actual coverage and quality of Services may be affected by conditions within or beyond our control, including network problems, software, signal strength, your equipment, structures (including buildings in which you may be located), atmospheric, geographic, or topographic conditions.
They dont claim theyre not a telephone service, but they do say that coverage is NOT available everywhere. I'm not going to quote each and every cell phone carrier, but you get the idea.
Need telephone service quality and stability? Go with a company that says they'll give it to you. |

This is why VoIP is a long ways from replacing landlines, even cell phones are more reliable. Isn't their any kind of oversight of these companies like with the bells? Man, if landline service went out often and affected so many like VoIP, you'd have the authorities on them pretty quick.

said by scooby :
vonage really should be using multiple isps instead of a single crappy one (WCG - Wiltel). Appears parts of the wcg network is having issues so vonage is down for a majority of the users.
They're multihomed with Level3 and Globalcrossing as well.
