If the opower is out, perhaps accessing your MJ account via a phone browser could get access to setting a forwarding parameter.

I've heard that Google Voice might be your solution. Move ...

My router will show a MAC address of devices on the network. You might be able to see it from the router end. I don't think any network device can work without a MAC address.

Netflix Interferes with MagicJack and Makes Voice Dropouts

Lots of dropped voice syllables on my MJ+ while Netflix was being viewed at my house on a PlayStation. I played for about 8 hours with my ASUS RT-A66R Router today and finally found a solution.

Make sure your MagicJack is at least 3 ftt away from your Wireless Router antennas. I found lots of problems when they were close. perhaps the radio waves are interfereing with the MagicJack. Same for being away from a cordless phone.

Not sure if this is the answer....but....
Is it perhaps your cordless phone is running in the smae frequency range as your mouse? Many cordless phones have a frequency/channel selection button that will change to another frequency. I think the 2.4 GHz devices sometimes fight each other. I bought 5 ...

Re: can't install land line phone number

There was some talk that mJ would also charge $10 every subsequent year for the port, but I'm not sure if that is actually the case, if it is it is a rip off.
