i don't yet trust sunrocket but if they were trustworthy i would recommend them

 

[EvilYoda]

Yeah, with Vonage and SR available, why pay $39.95 for the same thing? We've been with SR for a few months now, probably over half a year...it hasn't been flawless but we hardly use the "landline" that much anyway.

Funny. I don't yet trust Comcast. They have lied to me constantly.

Eh, I've had them for just over a year now and I love the service. And you can't beat the price

I can get digital phone from Time Warner as well..same price. How exactly does Vonage/Sunrocket/etc work -- affects d/l speed & latency at all?

 

[TheGizmo]

whats wrong with sunrocket? i've been enjoying cheap phone for months now... no complaints. and comcast blows my monkey.. they can't get the bill right 3 months in a row. retards keep trying to charge me extra for nothing, they cant trouble shoot at all, they have a huge lack of on-site technicians, and their speed is still slow. SunRocket FTW

Plug it into your router and plug a phone into it, done. As for speeds, no effect at all for me, the only time I ever have any issue is if Im uploading, I cant be using more then 30KB/sec upload or I break up to the person Im talking to. (6/384 plan).

I have the 5/384 plan..don't really need upload much, so I guess it would work out alright. Thanks

Vonage FTW. Especially the $14.99/month plan.

 

[tw1164]

Even Verizon's (VOIP) plan is cheaper then comcast

Does Sunrocket requires you to purchase a special router like Vonage does? Or can their phone be plugged into my existing router?

They send you a free phone adapter.

 

[PingSpike]

Sounds like a ripoff.

I pay like 50 or so for verizon land line. So if comcast offered me i would jump on it. Is hat a special offer price?
