Thanks, tony, another Canadian, for the reply. I still think MJ is a good tool, although some of my calls got caught off after 5 minutes, but the MJ support told me how to fix this problem on my internet settings, and now seems to work ok.

Canadian phone number for MJ

If you want to order a MJ in Canada, and cannot order it as the order form asks for a ZIP code, which us Canadians do not have, and the order will not go through, call this number:

1-800-649-1271.

ZIP Code For Canada During Registration

When registering the MJ in Canada, the registration calls for a zip code, which we Canadians don't have. There is no use in putting in a postal code and after chatting with MJ for over 30 minutes, I finally found out that all you have to enter is 00000 in the zip code field

Dropped Calls

I have made a few calls already after changing the DNS server numbers, per my previous post, and so far so good. Perhaps others can comment after making the changes. Nice to get these bugs out of the way, but cannot understand what MJ chat line did not give these instructions to other owners ...

MJ Hangs Up

Check out my recent post re "Dropped Calls"

I just purchased a MJ, actually it was a gift, and looking at another website I was advised that MJ actually can see all the web sites you have visited. I searched the forum but could not find out how to block these intrusions, in a very simple step by step set up. Can anyone help me. Thanks in ...
