Vonage

I am having a problem where my 2 macs, one connecting via airport and the second wired, will pull IP's higher than my router should distribute. For example it would pull 192.x.x.147 whereas I only have 6 machines on my network, each normally pulling 192.x.x.100 - 104. My 2 macs also pull an incorrect gateway/router, typically 192.168.x.2 or 3 instead of the needed .1. ...

Where does Safari store settings for helper apps? I ask because I've been checking my Vonage voicemail in that browser for the past couple of years, and now all of a sudden, when I download a voicemail message, it's using iTunes to playback the file, which is supremely annoying, since it adds voicemail messages to my library. So, can anyone tell me how I can set it so...

I am having a problem with all of my computers connecting to the web. Each time I try to pull up a website it takes 5-15 seconds for webpages to begin to load. In some cases once the pages begin to load there will be another instance where it will pause for a noticable amount of time before the rest of the page loads. When I try to ping a site, typically yahoo or apple, it...

Of course (slapping myself on the head). Even if I plug the voip router into a wifi access point? As far as it knows, a network's a network, right?

Well, you don't need your computer to use vonage. If you have a internet connected DHCP pool, you can just plug it in, plug a regular telephone into (RJ-11) into it and wait a few seconds and your ready to go. If you get the soft-phone, you don't have to take the box with you. It doesn't have wi-fi connection option. Remember, the "adapter" is really a linksys box...

I'll be able to carry the adapter home and to work, plug it in to any available broadband network, computer and regular phone, and when someone calls my Vonage number it will ring where I'm at? ...

It is the size of a Linksys Internet Home Router. In fact, that is what it is. ;) You can just plug it in anywhere and it works fine. It doesn't even need to be your broadband router, you can just set it up like another box on your network. For more money, you can get a soft-phone, which installs on your Mac or Windows computer allowing you to place calls with your...

switch. To make things more confusing I also just got a motorola vonage phone box. ...
