Some things that you Really should know before buying MagicJack

You really want to trust your family's safety to magicjack?

A monitored alarm provides very little in the way of "safety" beyond the actual siren alarm itself (which is what is really going to scare off an intruder). Frankly, all having the system monitored does is add a 20% credit to my Home ...

I did that and unfortunately their answer to any VOIP conversion for me is to charge me $300 to install a cell based unit in the alarm box and an additional $10 a month fee for using it.

That is why I am trying to see if there is a way to make the MJ system work with the alarm instead.

Looking at dropping my Land Line for MJ but realized that we would still need a way for the security system to call into the home office for monitoring.

Have people had much luck using MJ with a monitored security system?

Basically, I just bought the Magicjack system yesterday and the voice quality over the phone sounded great after trying it out on my home PC.

Now I would like to install it on a dedicated TC or old laptop system that I can run 24/7 with minimal power usage.

I'd be willing to just buy a used TC ...
