I've read it before but forget where. What is MJ's broadband range, from the lowest to highest?

Accessing voicemail messages

To access voicemail msgs, I am told to dial my extension and, what looks to be the 'star' key and listen to the mail.

Question: I have never been informed what this 'extension' is to do this. How do I find that out?

Thanks

Phone with headset instead of handset, or both

Hi,

I've been reading these posts with considerable interest and a question occurs to me:

Does anyone know of an MJ compatible phone that has a headset instead of handset so that one could have hands free from holding a handset to do other things?

Just wondering . . . . . . .

Dropped data packets, calls breaking up at my end

I am using an AT&T w/corded handset and I am hearing data breaks, only way I can describe this at the other end. My Internet connection is a wireless setup w/ 256K speed and I'm thinking about upping this to 1024K. Would this help with communication smoothness at the other end?

Thanks for any ideas

Very good point. I forgot to mention the cost of an ATA device. It costs anywhere from $20 to $80, with most would cost around $40. Not to mention it's very small, needs very little power to run compared to a laptop or thin client PC or full pledge PC.

Try a search on eBay for VOIP ATA:

Pardon me for my ignorance but what do the letters 'BYOD' stand for?

AFAIK....the bluetooth story goes like this:
Your PC on which you run MJ should have a built-in bluetooth support, or you should buy a USB-Bluetooth adapter. They are available for less than $20 these days.
The bluetooth headset / USB-Bluetooth adapter should come with software that runs on the ...

Can MJ detect a Bluetooth headset when it is on

Yes, most of the times, as bluetooth headset is detected by bluetooth service and made available to any application that could use bluetooth headset. I use a couple bluetooth headsets (Samsung. Motorola) with MJ calls without any issue.

When you plug in the MJ and wait about 30 seconds, does a blue light come on? Go to My Computer and see if there are any new drives called MAGICJACK or magicJack. One should be a CD drive. Any files there? If there is an autorun.exe, double-click it and installation should start. You can't make ...

Hello, I'm a newbie on this forum so please beg my pardon if you've read about what I'm about to talk about before.

My MJ came today in the mail and I unwrapped and connected it to the computer but it wasn't recognized. In the connection picture, MJ is held so that the USB connect is at the upper ...
