picked one up last week... can only order online and get site to store delivery.... took me 5 business days to get it sent to the bellingham walmart... Happy with it so far...

Kenny2469

I think that im going to make the switch to Nettalk... But the only downside I can see, is they say you can only get a US phone number. I think that I will also keep my MJ to keep my Canadian number and just forward it to the Nettalk. I guess thats the only good thing about MJ, their call forwarding ...

Kenny2469

Thanks for the quick response. The reason I would like that is I have a small business with multiple sites. I will just pay for 2 lines and use Google Voice. I figured it wasn't possible, but I was trying to save a little. I just started my business and I don't want to go too far in the red. I don ...

Kenny2469

It apears they have tweaked the system, Im in Vancouver (604) and can now dial local canadian toll free numbers....

Kenny2469

Just load it up with bogus information.. They don't send you anything.. The only problem that could arise is if you use 911, they will not be coming to your place...

Kenny2469

Strange.. Works just fine on my Asus Aspire Netbook 532h-2807

Kenny2469

Just an update, I had to make a phone call today, expecting it to only last the standard 5 minutes... Much to my surprise the call went on and on and on, until I ended the call at 33 minutes... Has MJ fixed their problem??

Anyone else that has had this problem should do a couple test runs to see ...

Kenny2469

We shouldnt have to create a google voice account.

We should be getting the service they advertise.

1.) Create a google voice account

2.) Enter (register) your magicjack number into your google voice account.

3.) At https://www.google.com/voice/#inbox Enter the Canadian number to call into ...

Kenny2469

Ive had the exact same problem with both of my MJ's 604-800 and 514-400... Tech support reset my account, went through the network settings crap, they didn't seem to understand that no settings have changed on my end and it just magically stops working at 5minutes. No changes to my setup will fix ...

Kenny2469

I'm also in Canada.. Had this problem last week, it resolved itself, and now it's back... 5 minutes to the "T" and dead...

Kenny2469

At this time I can not call ANY toll free numbers... They all sit for about 10 seconds, followed by fast busy...

Kenny2469

Same thing happened to me. MJ working fine for several months, then all of a sudden the 5minute disconnect... I was plugged into a powered hub. I ran the update from a few posts earlier, and plugged right into the computer USB and successfully talking for over an hour...

Kenny2469

Nope.. you can no longer access the MJ device and view its contents through your computer..

Kenny2469

I have two MJ's, one I use at home with the dongle and the other is never plugged in. That one I have the SIP info in my iphone and use it through that. That unit has not been subject to the revolving passwords im guessing cuz it hasnt been plugged in since i retrieved the passwords. The one plugged ...

Kenny2469

This started after the Lucky You upgrade.

On outgoing calls the other party can not hear me
but I can hear them. Incoming is just fine.

If I use the flash button to put on hold, then come back,
all is well, we can hear each other.

Anyone else having this? is there a fix?

Kenny2469

So, if the MJ gets a new password each time the dongle or program is launched, can't someone fix sipdump or one of the programs to not close the application after it dumps the files? maybe this would keep the same password as we see it in the file until its restarted again?

Kenny2469

I've been using WiFi for mine for almost a year with no problems. I have cable internet, 10mb download speed. And my MJ computer is within 30 feet of the router.

Kenny2469

I thought MJ had to first be set up in the US before being taken abroad. I may be wrong, but that is the way I understood it.

Im in Canada and registered it here. As far as Im concerned, as long as you have internet access and are not in a country that blocks voip, it doesnt matter where you ...

Kenny2469

Ok, so I have finally got siphone 2.3rc4 working just fine with my jailbroken iphone 3g running 3.1.3 firmware...

Install it with winSCP as noted above...

In the iPhone settings icon, goto Siphon.

Account: E#########01 (#'s representing your 10 digit MJ#)
Password: Your 20 character MJ password ...

Kenny2469

Well all day yesterday and so far upto this afternoon it has been working flawlessly...

Im pretty sure you are correct at the statement that there are too many MJ customers than their servers can handle...

Hopefully they will get this resolved, although im not too concerned as it is not my ...

Kenny2469

What's the area code and exchange? I can't understand why they'd do it to one of their own numbers, but it seems almost like the problem everyone is having with calling small phone companies. If I forward my magicjack to one of the numbers I can't call directly that's what I get; "all circuits are ...

Kenny2469

Seems others have the same problem of late, but most seem to have it AFTER they got the update, so not sure what is going on. Have you tried contacting support and asking them to reset your account? Worth a shot..

Joe Sica

Well, spent an hour on with tech support, had me download an upgrade ...

Kenny2469

I have been getting "ALL CIRCUITS ARE BUSY" for all incoming calls for the last 2 days.

Anyone else?

I have re-booted the computer several times, changed USB ports and still nothing. I am using a powered hub too.

Running on a separate PC with no other applications running except Norton. No ...

Kenny2469

They can be setup on the same account login and managed through one profile, but you need a MJ unit for each phone number, so if you want 3 separate lines, you need to buy and register 3 units. but if you call forward them to another number, you do not need to have them plugged in. you can control ...

Kenny2469

So I have been reading through the posts for some time and messing around, and i've come to a blockage...

I have my username and password and Siphon installed...
When loaded, it shows the proxy on the left, and on the right
it shows "Not Found"

When I attempt to dial a number, it just says Call ...

Kenny2469

Same thing with me, I am in Vancouver, but cannot call any canadian 800 numbers, but free reign to call any of the US 800 numbers that I could have never called from my landline... Probably cuz it all goes through their main hub somewhere in the US and technically considers all MJ phones to be based ...

Kenny2469

Go pick up yourself a prepaid credit card from a local retailer (7-11, safeway, etc....), put enough $$ to renew and thats the end of it, toss it...

Kenny2469

Hey Greg, why don't you explain some of your issues, maybe someone can assist you with getting it working... Many of us here have working units and are happy campers...

Kenny2469

Ya I've had fast busy every so often... I restarted my computer and it went away... But still annoying cuz u dont know that its happening, as outgoing calls were made fine with no trouble...

Kenny2469

Man,. TrendNet has got to be up there in the category of worst... I had one of those routers (cuz it was cheap and hey, so am I) but the troubles out weighed my cheapness and I went out and bought a D-Link...

The best thing I ever did with the TrendNet router was to back over it with a 5 ton car ...

Kenny2469

And you as well...
True meaning, choclate and weight gain, right ?!?! =)

Kenny2469

Is that an error message you get when you try to dial??

Kenny2469

Thats definately strange, can you make outgoing calls fine?

Kenny2469

definately sounds like a firewall or router issue here... have you tried turning off your firewall or bypassing the router and plug your computer directly into the cable or dsl modem, just to rule those out???

Kenny2469

New setup for you?? probably something to do with your local phone company not recognizing the new exchange... I had that problem with different cell providers not being able to call in, but soon after it was all good.....

Kenny2469

I didn't even make it through the first 3 posts on that site,
and it seems that everyone has a case of not reading the TOS.

MJ isn't for everyone, and there are some differences in VoiP compared to a landline... Accept it or don't...

Kenny2469

I hope that I never have to be one to call them... lol... But I'm sure that my time will come eventually...

As for the hair loss, just cut your hair short... too short to be able to grab easily with your fingers, thus ending your balding patches and the pain.... =)

I demonstrated MJ successfully to a friend through my laptop getting its internet tethered from my iPhone 3G and the quality was just the same as at home connected to my Cable internet...

That bad eh?

Sorry I just couldn't resist! :-)

Muahaha.... I have yet to see any quality issues here ...

Kenny2469

Haha, yes, each and every show you quoted works for me...

Giggedy...

Thanks for the great post, Kenny.

I've always considered Canada to be the Barney Rubble of neighbors. No temporary disagreement would stop Fred and Barney from being buddies. (Though from your perspective, maybe you're Fred ...

Kenny2469

I have a family member that is in the same situation, very very rural area, but they are successfully using the MJ with a 3G wireless internet stick on their laptop, and I mentioned in a post earlier that I demonstrated MJ successfully to a friend on my laptop using internet tethered from my iPhone ...

Kenny2469

Hey DSS,

Sorry but you are not infact dealing directly with "MagicJack". CanadianMagicJack, magicjackcanada, themagicjack.ca, etc.... they are just a reseller company and that is their business name purely for the purposes of increasing their business and have no direct connection with MJ/YMAX ...

Kenny2469

I think most everyone agree's, and is sick of the same question over and over... I was a lurker here for many months before I signed up.. Reading and reading... I also hate someone just looking for the easy way out, getting someone else to hand feed them...

Oh, and we (Canada) may be on top ...

What a sad, pathetic individual... Want help, ask and take in the replies, dont knock em...

This forum IS the AAA / CAA of the MJ world... Best of all, help is FREE and you dont have a greasy tow truck driver grunging up your junk... =)

Kenny2469

Im sure its all on the up & up, otherwise there would be someone complaining... They are just playing the corporate way of "safe ball" so if info does get distributed, they just say, hey, you agree'd... Im sure its something to do with sharing with law enforcement agencies if your records are ever ...

Kenny2469

You will probably find that with most companies... You're credit card number is somewhere within those other companies you deal with...

But for the truly paranoid out there, just get a "pay as you go" credit card, put on whatever you are going to spend, use it, and not worry about it... You can't ...

Kenny2469

Wow.... Umm, let me just say this ass-clown doesn't speak for all Canadians. I'm glad he is far far away from me. I laugh at how this started out at a stupid question and turned into a colossal mess...

Come on, hockey, war, education??? get a life... This is a forum about a telephone service ...
