In regards to SIPPhone, you are correct, no E911, so if this is an issue for you and you don't have a cell phone for emergencies, best stick with the others. I've used Packet8 in the past, you can pck up a packet8 phone at Staples, too. It's been a couple of years since I used them, though. Of c

The problem with sipphone is that it doesn't provide any E911 service, whereas Lingo and the others do. At least if you call 911 from a major VOIP provider then they have an address on file to go check out. On 5/7/07, Prince Ensign <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: None of the above. Vonage is not y

None of the above. Vonage is not yet out of bussiness, but if things continue the way they've been going, they won't be around too much longer. The problem with Skype is that they use a proprietary protocol, and the problem with both companies is that their equipment won't interoperate with othe

I need to ask you a few questions before I can give you some advice that would help and not be a hindrance: 1. Since the wireless connection is shared, the throughput is most important. How fast is the connection to the ISP going in both directions? 2. If you know it, who is the ISP providin
