I know for a bit vonage did not provide 911 service - has that been resolved
yet by them? I know the FCC mandated it..

I use Vonage - $25/mo unlimited for home use. Been using it for about six
months, and the only problem I encountered was an occasional breakup of
the voice channel while downloading large files. I was using it on a Covad
384k DSL line, which I just dropped in favor of Verizon's Fios service.
The VOIP works perfectly with the greater bandwidth Fios offers (15mbps
down, 1.8mbps up). You need a minimum of 90kbps for each voice channel, so
be sure you have enough bandwith available.
There are a few features you can't get - at least not yet. The main one
that I miss is one Verizon offered that blocked incoming calls if the
caller cloaked his caller ID. I always figured that if the caller didn't
want me know who he was, I didn't really care to talk to him anyway. But
that is MUCH less of an issue now that we have the national and statewide
(NJ) Do Not Call registries.
I do keep one copper POTS line from the telephone company for emergency
use. If all else fails, that self-powered copper pair is worth its weight
in gold.
Bat all-in-all, I've never looked back.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] WAY OT: COVAD VOIP
I have been considering switching many of our office from POTS lines to
COVAD voice over IP. Since this is such a diverse and well informed
group,
I was wonder if anyone has any experience with them or suggestions as to
alternate VOIP providers. Off list replies are welcomed.
Thanks -
Marc
