Re: MJ Plus Issue

We ported his home phone and we are already having major issues....


Here is the scenario:
If he walks downstairs to the kitchen to dial that same number from one of the cordless phones a recording comes on and tells him he has to buy conference minutes in order to make the call. The other issue ...

Magic Jack Plus defective USB adapter

I spent about an hour diagnosing a defective USB adapter. When plugged into the PC, the MJ worked perfectly. When plugged into my AC adapter and connected to my LInksys router, it would not work at all Error 404. Check your internet connection. I did NOT know about the Ethernet led's on the end of ...

Re: Inbound CID ...Possible fix.

For what it's worth:

My situation may be unique, but most of the time my inbound CID would not display on my various phones (five mixed Uniden models) whole house setup, but did show correctly on the softphone.

I put a 100k ohm resister across the line and now all work great.

Chalk up another ...

Garbled or Choppy audio at remote end of call

Has anyone got a good fix for choppy audio? I'm on my second year of MJ use and it has worked almost flawlessly until late December or early January. All my local calls seem great but all my long distance calls are crap.
I have identified my Proxy and VMS servers and forced my Proxy to a very ...

Just an update, today it is as good as it's ever been.
I've been using this MJ since last July and I'm sure it's saved me hundreds in long distance charges along with the savings from deleting my second phone line. I'm still very happy with my purchase.

Whatever it was, it was fixed overnight ...

Choppy audio on outgoing calls only

Just today I noticed a problem. If I originate the call, the audio I hear is very choppy but the person I call can hear me perfectly. If someone calls my MJ #, both sides of the conversation are perfect.
So far I have swapped PC's and both my desktop and notebook act the same way. I've tested my ...

the internet. I went searching for the version numbers but I found several different versions depending
on what directory I was looking at.

I bought one on ebay for $10 and it works BUT I was hoping it would be of higher quality.
It will NOT work without batteries, so you can't just toss it in the bag with your laptop and
expect it to work when you need it. If the batteries go dead, it's worthless. Also, if you
happen to press the ...

A) Um... because Ymax handles all incoming callls to your MagicJack?

B) Because Ymax was the common endpoint to failed calls from both Verizon and Qwest?

C) Because nothing at Verizon or Qwest has ever been corrected within 45 minutes?

That must e different for different area codes. I've been successful forwarding calls
to both my cell phone and my home phone by just entering (xxx-xxx-xxxx)

This is more painful that using a 1200 baud dialup connection. :(
The membership would double overnight if this was hosted by a

How would that only affect the local prefixes? All incoming and outgoing calls worked perfectly.
Only the local incoming calls failed. This was after 3 days of working perfectly from any prefix.

Local phone company is blocking MJ

I just had an interesting bug. I spent 2 hours on Chat with Eve and April. Wed afternoon, something broke.
No one in my local area code could call my MJ number. They all got the "We're sorry, all circuits are busy now,
please try your call later" recording from the phone company (Qwest).

The Chat ...
