I'm convinced that a lot of the reports about MJ being bad are posted by the competition, including some of the brand new users in this thread. Even on my blog I see folks from all over the world (mainly eastern Europe) claiming they have MJ and warning people how "bad" it is.

I just got done trying to debug a busted MJ for someone, and I think my time/experience here as well as knowledge of VoIP might dissuade you from reaching that same conclusion when I say that the Magicjack sucks large rocks thru a small straw.

Or their support does, anyway.

I've sent the person back on their way with a linksys travel router and PAP2 combination they had that's worked for years.
