Quit Vonage,can't connect,now what?

Post by spacecoastviking »

I had my MJ hooked up through my Vonage router(phone line from MJ to Vonage phone port).I quit vonage and now I can't connect.Do I have to Have the MJ hooked up to a router?or can I just plug it into the usb port(on my computer),connect my phone(to the MJ) and be good to go?Or is there something I'm not doing right,or what???
Everthing was working great....for awhile....now I can't get it to work right.I still recieve voice messages,but I can't call out,or answer when someone calls in.
Any help would be tremendously appreciated.
Thanx!John

Space,

"can I just plug it into the usb port(on my computer),connect my phone(to the MJ) and be good to go?" This is the way it should be hooked up and yes if you do this it should be good to go.

Where is this Vonage phone port? on the Vonage router that has 1 or 2 phone ports?

After an hour or so of "conversing" with April(MJ Tech)and downloading some kind of MJ fix,I am happy to say I am up and running.Spent an hour or so talking with a good buddy in Boston and told him he should get one....You can't beat twenty bucks a year for unlimited long distance and local.Does anyone know when they are going to release more area codes?I would like to get 321,if I could....
Later,Spacecoastviking
I am kinda new at this sort of thing,so please be kind and patient.I am eager to learn and will try to pick things up as quickly as possible.
Thank You in advance!!!
John
