Re: [nycwireless] stupid question about vonage
not to endorse vonage either, but you wouldn't believe how good my calls to the US sound from Korea. the latency to the US is around 180-200 ms and everyone keeps saying it sounds like you're around the corner for anyone living/travelling overseas, you can't beat $15/month for unlimited calls home plus a domestic phone number. feel free to ask me for a referral!

Re: [nycwireless] stupid question about vonage
What are you using to fax with? Which VOIP box did they give you? Thanks, Jonathan Jose Marinez wrote: Vonage tells you that you need to get a special line for faxes. You have to pay about $10 for it per month. I have the small business package that includes the additional fax number and it works. I've been a Vonage customer for about 6 months. They've lowered the international rates twice and the monthly rate once. I couldn't be any happier and I'm never going back to Verizon again. -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
Re: [nycwireless] stupid question about vonage
I use an HP OfficeJet g85 printer/copier/fax machine and I'm using the Motorola box. I hope this helps.
