Just got a magic jack, and I'm having some problems. I can make or receive one call, and everything works great. However, the next time I try to make an outgoing call it beeps 3 times like a busy signal and drops. If I instead try to call my MJ phone#, it goes straight to voice mail.
If I restart the magic jack (Menu->Advanced Users->Restart) I can make or receive another phone call.
This has happened both with and without a phone connected, on two different computers (both running Windows XP). Does anybody have any clue what could be going wrong?
Thanks for any help.
MJ works only once after restarting

Re: MJ works only once after restarting
I would try bypassing your router by connecting directly to your modem, or disabling the router (if it's one of those modem/router combo things). Be aware that this can expose you to risk if you aren't running a software firewall and/or do it for too long.
If it still happens, I would try changing the proxy you use (described on the wiki FAQ).
