How do you know which area codes are blocked?

I have a HP 5710. Paid $72 (including shipping) for it on EBay last year. I had to pay another $16 (includes shipping) for 512MB Flash memory after update. MJ has saved me $45 x 12 months =$540.
I use a Netgear Router and Time Warner cable.

Year 1 = $540 savings from phone bill (invested $72+16 ...

Get a real ISP provider that uses CABLE and not DSL. DSL is your problem.

nitemare

Verizon? AT&T? Why are you using junk ISP Providers? It is not MJ that is the problem, it is your choice of ISP providers. Get a real provider that uses CABLE (not DSL) and you will not have any problems with MJ.

nitemare

Funny stuff!

nitemare

its working now. Guess MJ overdosed on prescription medicine briefly.

nitemare

Cant call anyone. Fast busy signal. is MJ down right now? Worked about an hour ago.

nitemare

DirecTV = $50/month (first year only. After that, $90/month)
Internet= Cable Time warner ($45/month)
Phone = MajicJack ($16/year)

I finally am happy with my current setup for tv/internet/and phone.

Thin clients have a solid state C drive (no spinning hard drive, no fans... no moving parts). Netbooks/Laptops are not made for 24x7x365 usage.

Yes, that is the KEY point. TC will outlast any netbook or laptop. Do you really want to risk your netbook breaking? Not me. Ill stick with my TC that is ...

nitemare

Uniden Dect 6.0 phones were perfect for me! So its not that. Im using a thin client however.

nitemare

Thanks for the removal of the extension cord. I always have been using it. Now I removed it and will test MJ quality,

nitemare

How much RAM do you have? What are your PC specs? I bet you have an older PC and minimum ram. If not, your install of XP needs to be fixed up (or reformatted).

nitemare

Those that have bad experiences are a result of:

1) Outdated and underpowered PC
2) Not using cable internet (using DSL or dialup (gulp!)
3) Using Wireless

If you fall into one of those 3 categories, dont use MJ.

nitemare

What is a corded phone?!?!? I would never go back to that. Uniden Dect 6.0 works great!

nitemare

You still have not answered the question "Did you try it in another PC?" I bet it is your PC and not the MJ itself. Go try it on another PC or else you are wasting everyone's time.

I have a 5710 with 512 MB flash and 256 MB ram. My MJ worked fine until the last upgrade. The error I was getting was not enough virtual memory. I discovered that the default setting in the XPe image is for no paging file. I had 245 MB left on the flash drive and set that entire amount as the ...

nitemare

Already received and installed the new 512MB for $16. Works great! Reformatted and installed MJ update. Works perfect!!

235 MB Free when all said and done! I still uninstalled:
Media Player,Citrix,TeemNT, and Sygate.

I installed the latest version that runs on 5710:
5.1.336 Rev. A (26 Jun 2007 ...

Alltechstore stopped selling the thin clients. I bought mine from them last year. Worked fine up until the latest MJ update. I had to buy 512MB HD space. Just be aware you need atleast 512MB to run MJ.

nitemare

Yep, thats what I had to buy for my 5710 in order to get the latest MJ update to work. Back in business. $16 well spent!

nitemare

It was the HD space. The latest MJ update was too large for 256MB. I bought and installed 512Mb and it works fine now.

Please someone post a working procedure to run as service (or hide) using Windows 7 64 Bit. So far everything I tried does not work.

nitemare

Does not work with Windows 7 64-Bit.. No dial tone.
Oh well.

nitemare

Magic Silence does not work on the new update released by MagicJack.

nitemare

Just finished testing that image and still dont work. I get a dial tone on the phone, but it will not dial any #'s. The dialpad dials fine, just not phone. I installed magicJack on my spare desktop and it works fine with the phone.

So.,..after hours and hours..the latest MJ Update is too big for ...

nitemare

I have tried every version of the OS from HP's site out there. I tried all the versions back to 2004. I have removed everything possible.

I can free up 90 MB, but once I install MajicJack, it drops down to 5 MB and says low space. I now can get the dialpad up and it does make calls via the dialpad ...

nitemare

I bought my HP T5710 from ebay with XP already installed and MJ software too. It looked like it was modified so it will fit.

Hmmm. So maybe the new update was too large for the 256MB? Ah man. I hope there is a way I can make it fit without bumping to 512MB.

I did get a 'low disk space' message so ...

I have been running MJ fine for past year on my thin client HP T5710 up until today. All of sudden no dial tone. Come to find out MJ released an update. Well, my screen says:

"Downloading, updated, Lucky You..installing" then the MJ icon disappears. The phone dialpad never appears.

I never heard of clear wimax until you mentioned it. Being its a for mobile laptop cell phones, im not suprised it does not work. Sounds like a poor mans dsl connection. Get a more reliable internet provider, preferably cable and that should fix you up.

nitemare

Fax does not work..its not supported either by MJ. I got it to send 1x out of atleast 100 tries. If it works more than once, you are very lucky.

nitemare

Working now. Outgoing and incoming works. Cool.

nitemare

Same exact problem here. I just posted a thread about it. Technical support said they are 'upgrading' their servers and to wait a few hours.

I cant receive any incoming calls or make outgoing calls (even though I get a dial tone)

OHIO area

nitemare

Every # I try to call, fast busy signal.
Tech chat said MJ is upgrading their servers now and to wait a few hours.

**Also when I call magicJack from a cell phone, I get a fast busy signal. So it is obviously an issue on MagicJack end.

Lately Ive been noticing this issue happen more often. Im ...

nitemare

I dont think this will work for me using a Thin Client. I cant really install anything else on it with only 256MB.

nitemare

Same thing happen to me - using a Thin client. Have not rebooted since January. Then all of sudden, no dial tone.

I was going to do the regedit, but instead opted for the MJ remover +update..Works perfect.

So I guess when MJ releases and update, those with thin clients that never reboot get hosed?

Found password from dump files. Found UN from PasswordFinder 2.2

Using proxy address :proxy1.Newark.talk4free.com - Is that right?
I have MJMD5 running, then run X-lite Beta (on XP)
Forwarded port 5070, disabled firewall.

followed exact instructions from link:

X-lite - cant connect. Followed instructions. Got my UN from Password finder 2.2, got my password from the dump files.

Any suggestions? Firewall and port 5070 is forwarded.
