Is MagicJack using ATA working or not? Confused now?

Post by yazyazoo »

I have been doing a little research on not using the MagicJack adapter and putting the ATA adpater with MJ information to use it rather than leave a computer on.

I have been on two forums and some say it is still possible after the June update with a newer MagicJack. Some say it is not possible.

I just got my MagicJack 2 weeks ago.

I have a PAP2t adapter.

If it is possible what do information do I need to put on the ATA.
I tried Stroths utilites but get and INIerror3.

I don't know if I should try if it's not working at all.

Yes, it works. I have a PAP2T and mine is working fine.

You'll need the proxy(MJMD5) software in order for it to work. This can be run on your pc or on a wireless router using an opensource firmware. I personally use DD-WRT on a Linksys WRT150N router.

So is MJMD5 the only way to work with an ATA adapter? I do have the Asus 520gu router which can use DD-WRT but if I don't need to run DD-WRT that would be better. I have my router already doing more stuff than it should and I don't want to use more of the routers cpu. I am using the router for samba storage and print server.

Yes, you'll need to run MJMD5 but it doesn't have to be running on the router. You can run it on your PC instead. Of course your PC will have to be on in order to place & receive calls.
