I've seen several posters referring people to this for answers to their questions. Please help. I've got some terrible call choppiness that is driving me insane.

Hi Welcome to the forum.
Try http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/MagicJack/ ... ources/FAQ lots of good stuff in there as well in the unofficial forum. Some things to try:
- check your voip score (do google search for "test voip" and try several of the sites that come up)
- make sure you don't have a lot of simultaneous downloading going on at the same time you are phoning, if so, check out QoS and Hawkings Broadband Booster to give your call priority.
- Try your MJ on another PC/laptop on another Internet connection to see if you can eliminate your Internet service and PC as the source of the problem
- If connecting wirelessly, tried a wired Internet connection.

Essentially, try to eliminate any of the many variables affecting your MJ call. When it works, people say it's indistinguishable from a land line, even clearer as there is not the pop and crackle of a land line.
