I think at this point I'm going to try the replacement as its only one person who complains about this, and nobody else. If they keep it up after the swap i can write them off as nuts and move on.

Which isn't actually tooo doable as my only windows PC I have doesn't have any ports that will it will fit in.. Gotta love the design decision of having the USB plug mounted flush to the box so its unwieldy behind a computer with more than one thing plugged in.

Yeah, it sounds like they've just blocked your service, as opposed to outright disconnecting you. Eventually it'll stop working altogether as you watch a cable truck driving away.

Well I've basically tried changing everything but the Magic Jack itself, I did the update twice (once on my own, once when the tech support person insisted I try it) and it didn't resolve it.

Everything seems to work fine when I'm using the soft phone, but there is intermittent static bursts when I plug a phone into the port on the Magic Jack. I've tried two phones (one old wired phone, a new wireless phone) and have the same issue ...

Using the Dongle with asterisk?

My MJ is in the mail, and I'm leaning towards using the account to play with asterisk, what I'm wondering though is if there is a way to let asterisk use the dongle to provide dialtone/phone service to my home wiring, or is there no driver for it to use the hardware?
