Re: Vonage with a dial tone?

yes, you can, but it involves removing your POTS lines from your telephone 'trunk' (probably in your supers electrical room).



The POTS lines are what powers your phone with electricity, so they have to be removed. The Motorola ATA device from Vonage can power ~3-5 devices (aka phones), as a limit.



However, removing the POTS lines will probably kill your buzzer. So you'll have to choose one or the other.


When I moved to Vonage I pulled the plug at the NIC and plugged the Motorola ATA device into a spare phone jack to connect it to my NINE devices (aka phone) and one device (aka answering machine).

No problem with their operation - ringing and other features!
