ISP recommended Broadvoice so I went to the website and selected 1 year pre-pay plan.
However when you get to the ordering page its changes to PhonePower, after reviewing Phone power I decided to proceed anyway.
Equipment arrived in 1 day and was easy to setup but instructions in box do not tell you to put TA in DMZ zone therefore after 20-30 mins of the box flashing and resetting I researched in support and found that you need to put in DMZ to allow unfiltered access to internet. After that the box came up fine and outgoing calls worked.
It only took 3 days for my old number to be ported and I was up and running.
So far I have been impressed with the quality of service and value for Money, even international calls dialed using iPhone app had great call quality. I really cant tell any difference.
Can't believe I have been paying over $50 per month for AT&T landline but needed it for DSL service, but now that I have switched to DSLExtreme's 1Sstream service I can drop the landline. I thinks its criminal that AT&T can charge so much for basic phone service in this day and age with CID/CW but without free long distance or international calling.
Hope PhonePower service keeps on working the way it is and I will be very happy, but not sure if I can pre-pay another year next year for low rate or if it will go to monthly.
Didn't know about 2 year pre-pay until I came to this website, could have saved more, even if you have to pay taxes for 2nd year. Not sure why some people miss this fact and then complain.
