Good deal, I'm glad your volume is high. folks said they could berly hear me, all the time, while using magic jack. I think I have a defective magic jack. I sent it back, I'm getting my money back. Their customer support is among the worse I have ever seen any where. They have some kind of chat window they want you to use. My screen reader would not read their chat support window. I could not get them too either email, are call me. They wouldn't try and help at all. I tried different phones, tried upgrading, and tried changing settings. nothing worked. So that is my experience with the magic jack folks.
