Not much to it. Either connect it straight to the modem or to your router, then plug in your phone.

I mean if anything goes wrong later. Time Warner come out within two days if anything is wrong with your cable TV and they walk you through the steps you need if anything goes wrong with your PC, or I believe they will come out for that too.

Really. There seems to be so much out there. I can't wait to get the Vonage. I wish I had consulted you guys before I just bought my mobile, you are a mine of information. I never think to ask anyone, I just buy things spur of the moment, not good!!

I love retail therapy. A shopping day is a mental health day really!

Me too!

I got the Vonage package but I don't think I am even going to attempt to put it together. Another thing that will sit here for months, they bill from the day you sign up too!:curse:

They will usually charge you the connection fees when you order the box and the line. You just don't get to pay the first month of service (but we all know the connection fee kind of makes up for that )

The best thing right now is to refer friends. Good little deal going on there.

I know, I told the guy someone recommended me and came in here for her name (someone PM'd to say she liked hers when she read my post on here) but she was not on line for me to get her name!! Shame, I would have liked to get her whatever it was they were offering!
