It is possible that your router firewall is preventing the MJ from working properly. Try disabling that firewall.

A solution (finally)

Did another trip to my daughter's to try to get the MJ working, and this time was successful. Here's the short version. Followed the instructions (see posting above this) for Motorola 900SBG to open ports, etc. Still nothing, but I was determined to overcome this problem. I got on the phone (thank ...

MAYBE a solution

Just did another google search and came up with this website:
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Motorola/SBG900/Magicjack.htm

There is also a link to a "PORT CHECK" site that might be of further assistance. I'll give it a try later this week and see if it works.

not useful

I don't think my expression of frustration was a "blanket statement." It was exactly what it appeared to be -- frustration. My dad who's in his late 70's also was able to plug & play the MJ, but not me. If you do a google search you'll find lots of other folks who also have had nagging problems also ...

Swamp.....don't buy it. Here's why---TOO MANY PROBLEMs with whatever modem you have. Unless you're pretty good at computer technical stuff (and I thought I was until this stupid magicjack thing) you just might have issues with comcast.

Motorola 900 cable modem

I spent 3 hrs online with MagicJack support and at the end of all that time the 6th person helping me I think might have had a good suggestion. We think the Motorola SBG 900 Cable Modem might be interfering with the outgoing/incoming sound. I spent all that time in my daughter's apartment trying to ...

Same problem

Bought a MJ for my daughter at law school. She has Comcast cable internet. Had HUGE problems registering it, but finally got that done. Couldn't get any incoming sound so brought it home and FINALLY got that resolved (MJ tech support took over our computers and got that done). It works fine at home ...
