Linksys PAP2 VoIP Gateway

The Linksys Phone Adapter enables high-quality feature-rich telephone service through your cable or DSL Internet connection. Just plug it into your home Router or Gateway and use the two standard telephone jacks to connect your existing phones or fax machines. Each phone jack operates independently, with separate phone service and phone numbers -- like having two phone lines. With an appropriate Internet telephone service provider, you'll get clear telephone reception and reliable fax connections, even while using the Internet at the same time for normal data operations.

  Duration of ownership: 1 Years

  Strengths: The service works well. When it works.

  Weaknesses:Suppport, customer service, and reliebility.

  Overall Evaluation: I was a Vonage customer for over a year when my phone started ringing off the hook. I called Vonage to ask what was going on and Vonage the company that sold me the phone number told me to call another phone service and talk to them about it. I should also mention to get told to call someone else I spent 40 minutes on hold. Then I called sales and billing support and was on hold for 20 minutes before they told me I could have a free month. I told them that a free month of a phone that does not work does not seem very positive. The number that Vonage sold me will not stop ringing and I had 50 messages on my phone from people who were mad at some telemarketing company. Vonage would do NOTHING about the situation. I would and will never use Vonage’s service ever again. The inconvenience of suddenly not having the number you have used for a year is a nightmare. The complete lack of concern at Vonage was very frustrating.

  Strengths: Great quality, easy to set up

  Weaknesses:Vonage only

  Overall Evaluation: The way this device is marketed here does not make it clear that this device locks you into using the Vonage VOIP service. While Vonage are good at marketing, they are priced WAY ABOVE other Voice Over IP services, most of whom don't have any monthly fee just a per-minute fee as low as $0.01/min (some are even free).WARNING - this device is LOCKED to VonageIf you want to use those other cheaper (and just as reliable) VOIP services, you must buy a PAP-2 that is not locked to any single service provider. Those unlocked devices don't cost any more than this one, and you get a lot more flexibility. You can even use Vonage on them, but you're not limited to that one service provider.

  Strengths: SIze, easy to use

  Weaknesses:Designed for Vonage only

  Overall Evaluation: This is my second phone adapter. I use it as a portable phone. It is simply a wonderful device. I have used it overseas without difficulty. Also works fine when attached to a fax machine. Unfortunately if you are not using this with Vonage, it may be a hassle.
