Device Sucks - her's why.. Horrible!

Post by electroseller »

This thing does not work with a shared T1 line at all.

Here is what I get - I call a number in Nassau County NY and it sounds like Im in world war 2 and my raido is shot up BUT the person Im calling can hear me fine. I call NYC it works 50% of the time. Nearly all calls Cut off, delay and echo. No matter what I do it will not work.

The best part - I bought a new GE phone system with a corded base for my office and two wireless handsets. WhenI try to call the phone number they gave me the phone does not ring. I have been trying to support this thing for days already. I am no expert in Voip.. I build servers for the United States Military...

To summarize.. I would rather magic-jack-off then use this device.. UNless any ideas.. support told me to change the phone! LOL

The phone is brand new high end phone.. It simply does not work right. I was thinking to buy a USB 2.0 card as this computer does not ahve one and let the device use all teh power from that card. Any thoughts?

PS did I mention that the caller ID on the phone shows my cell calling it and when I pick it up I can use it.. BUT IT DOES NOT RING! NO RINGER.. it rings only on the computer speakers.. I use an old phone and it rings..?? New phone wont ring? LAME!

Why would you need MJ if you did? If i built servers for the U.S military i would be running around with a blackberry or some ****, I mean come on, you dont have to lie to get support around here... If you want support we give it to you for free.... If you want to rant, rant forum is that way [marq=right]:arrow: [/marq]

Have a nice day! :wink:

Ok if pc does not have a usb2 slot then it probably does not meet spec's

from looking at many other post I knew to get a phone with its own power supply.

Hey works great. even though I have 4 phones at home all with their own power supply.
(disconnected the wires going outside)

which phone are you using to call your own number.

Sounds like another Chad disciple. I'm like you. If he builds servers, why doesn't he have his own phone company.

Post by electroseller »

What diffrence does my probem with this thing or why Im using it have to do with what I do for a living. Any moron can build a server.. I assemble the hardware rackountable.. Big deal.. If you can build a computer your a dingbat.. Now the issue is that today it seems to work better? On cetian numbers I can it does not work at all?? The thing is lame.. I think its the router in this building with shared t1..

If its lame then send it back... Why stress about it when you can use your cell phone, its that simple, its not like the thing cost you hundreds of dollars. I'm sure you make tons of money building servers for the "U.S Military" correct? No need to get a heart attack over a cheap device... relax bud.

Save the drama and send the lame device back... it will do all of us good.

Hard group. Man just wanted some commiseration. I can't exactly concur though... I've gone almost my first 10 months with one and the only incident I've had is that one adapter that decided to stop working. MJ promptly replaced it.
