Product Description Linksys PAP2 2-Port Voice Over IP Adapter allows you to get telephone service through your high-speed Internet connection via Vonage: The Broadband Phone Company. It provides two standard independently numbered phone jacks that deliver voice and fax service over your cable or DSL Internet connection, so you can enjoy clear-sounding voice service while simultaneously navigating the Web. When you use your high-speed Internet connection to make phone calls, you'll lower your monthly phone bills and add services and features not available with traditional phone service: Small Buisness Unlimited Plan (with free fax line) - Unlimited calls to the United States & Canada, plus free long distance, for $49.99 a month Small Buisness Basic Plan (with free fax line) - 1,500 minutes to call anywhere in the United State & Canada FREE Caller ID FREE Call Waiting FREE Voicemail FREE 3-Way Calling FREE Call Return (*69) FREE Call Forwarding |
Amazon.com Product Description With Vonage, you can make calls through the Internet, potentially save on long-distance charges, and access a rich assortment of call features. Plans start as low as $14.99 per month, and the Premium Unlimited plan offers unlimited calling to the U.S. and Canada for only $24.99 per month. And it's easy to use: For making and receiving calls, Vonage works just like a traditional phone service; no special access codes or account numbers are required. Easy Hardware Setup | All Vonage plans let you enjoy the call features you've become accustomed to—call waiting, caller ID, voicemail, call forwarding, three-way calling, call return, repeat dialing, and reliable long distance—plus other features that may be new to you. For example, you can receive your voicemail as an email attachment, and you'll have a phone number that travels with you. Visit http://www.vonage.com/amazon to see which plan is best suited to your lifestyle and budget. The low monthly rates are quite reasonably priced, in our opinion, and with them you may save considerably compared to traditional phone service. International calls are available for additional low fees, with one economical exception: calls from the U.S. to Canada are treated like domestic long distance calls, rather than international. Vonage also supports short-form emergency 911 services, where available. (Dialing 911 requires activation and operates differently than traditional 911. See Vonage's website for details.) This Vonage Internet Phone Service Starter Kit is quick and easy to install in your home or business. All you need is a high-speed Internet connection (cable or DSL modem) and a touchtone phone. Setup is simple: Just connect one end of the included Vonage-certified Linksys PAP2 phone adapter to your Ethernet router or gateway and the other end to your telephone. Then sign up for Vonage phone service. An extra port on the adapter allows you to attach an additional phone or fax machine. You'll have instant access to both phone lines, each with a separate number, and you can even assign them different area codes (subject to availability). You can still surf the web while talking on the phone or receiving faxes. The phone adapter includes a generous three-year warranty from the manufacturer.

Customer Rating: 5 Review Date: 2009-03-07 0 out of 0 found this review helpful. Summary: Great VOIP router Great little gadget - small, simple, inexpensive, and works very well. What more can you ask. |
Customer Rating: 5 Review Date: 2008-12-03 1 out of 1 found this review helpful. Summary: The Linksys is the only way to go! I purchased the PAP2 in 2006 when I started with Vonage and its been rock solid ever since. I have a great broadband provider so that's probably a help but I have to say that its been extremely stable since installing it. I had some trouble in the beginning but I also live in a new development where construction was going strong and brown-outs were a common thing. Bottom line, I've had little to no trouble with this and the voice quality is superb! |
Customer Rating: 1 Review Date: 2008-10-13 1 out of 2 found this review helpful. Summary: Buyer Beware Buyer beware. This equipment does not work properly. I bought a Linksys WAG160N so I could connect a new laptop by wireless. Needing a VoIP phone adapter to work with the modem I called Linksys to ask what I should do. They recommended a Linksys PAP2T adapter which I also bought. 1. The wireless internet connection fails frequently and constantly needs rebooting. I might just as well sit at the wired desktop. 2. The VoIP adapter normally does not work. Linksys tell me there is a known problem between the PAP2T and the WAG160N. It's sad that they didn't tell me this when I asked what to buy. 3. The WAG160N falls over every time I launch my P2P torrent program. Within two minutes the internet fails followed by the DSL line. It has never worked properly. Apparently this is also a known issue with this equipment. I have spent many hours with Linksys help trying to fix these issues, including firmware upgrades and much stuffing around. I have reached the point where I simply want my money back so I can buy other equipment that works. |
Customer Rating: 5 Review Date: 2008-08-23 1 out of 2 found this review helpful. Summary: Vonage in Mexico I have used this Vonage adapter for over 3 years, both in traveling and at my house in Mexico. It has worked great and I really don't understand the negative reviews except to say that the people writing them probably had no idea of what they were doing or they have other motives than to inform for what they write.
Vonage is a great money and time saver the way I use it in Mexico. I have even chosen it over local land line phones here because it's cheaper to use calling within Mexico than is Telmex, the local phone company.
You do need to have a good high speed internet connection for it to work reliably. Set up is basic and any grade school kid could do it. There is no maintenance involved in its use. If the power or internet goes out (as they frequently do here in Mexico) the adapter resets itself.
I also use Skype for video calls to the kids, but Vonage is, by far, the best choice for a "regular" phone here. |
Customer Rating: 1 Review Date: 2008-07-23 1 out of 1 found this review helpful. Summary: NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS I rarely write review on products but I do read most of them before I buy and let me just say I never experienced so many problems like the ones I had with this product and Vonage. Vonage is the worst when it comes to customer service, I have been more than fair with them and allowed them time to correct the issue I keep having with everything with their name attached to it. I am in the military overseas and there lack of support has caused me to be disconnected from my family for far to long. bottomline:
1. Don't buy this device unless your willing to spend hours and weekends online looking up websites on how to get this thing to work. And it involves codes and passwords and hacking and even then its not worth the time.
2. Do not use Vonage Like I said they are the worst when it comes to customer service. I have been paying a bill for 4 months on a service I can't even use and I get no kind of support. If your device works it's all good but the minute it stops (and it will this is number 2 for me in less than a year) so does the service.apparently I am not the only one having problems with them |
