Vonage let me explain exactly what i want to do.
i have a house in Nashville that i visit
let me explain exactly what i want to do.
i have a house in Nashville that i visit maybe once a month. i want to have phone service there with free long distance but my regular service is outrageously expensive if i am only using it a few days a month. right now it's really not a big deal if it's difficult to send faxes as i won't have to do that very often. my current service is one line with distinctive ring, which i like if i am there all the time, but it's no big deal while i am just visiting.
being able to get my calls from my laptop in florida would very nice, though. then i would not have to check my answering machine periodically, which i am bad about doing anyway. in nashville i have a wireless set up with comcast cable providing my cable service and a linksys router and wireless um, whatever you call that thing. maybe it's only one thing? i have tivo there also, and the tivo is set up to connect via the cable, not the phone lines with a wireless thing.
so i want to be able to have fairly normal seeming phone service in Nashville, that i can also use with my laptop in Florida mostly, or wherever i travel, really, if i ever get to travel again.
in florida i have brighthouse cable/internet/phone service and a linksys wireless router and signal booster.
is this enough info?
if i want basically regular phone service via vonage in nashville, what do i need to buy? a portal to plug my normal phones into? which linksys version of what i need is good? i have a large house in nashville- 3 levels, so coverage is an issue. right now the modem is in the center of the house and the wi-fi works well all over the house because i am using a wall jack thing to conenct the cable input to the house, which is downstairs to the wireless router upstairs on the main level. i can't rememebr what it's called exactly, but it uses your house's wiring to send the cable signal to another area of the house. i am sure it slows things down somewhat, but my internet and cable are both fine with it hooked up that way.
any advice appreciated,
