I purchase magic jack A what? From other replies, I take it this is some kind of IP telephony device? I figured $39.95 for year was good deal So how would something like Skype compare? http://www.skype.com - no special hardware required! I wondered how it worked. Google "Voice-over-IP", "VoIP", "IP Telephony", etc,... Sometimes the unit works perfectly other times the voice sounds very choppy or you can not hear at all. Yes, that is typical of IP telephony! In fact, it is typical of many of the digital versions replacing "traditional" analogue media: with analogue, you got a gradual degradation in quality; with digital, the quality is either "good" or rubbish - there is no gentle transition from one to the other. is problem in software or the interface between my telephone that connects to magic jack and the land line phone it connects to. It depends on how good your IP link is. Hi Andy: How do I check IP Link? I think magic jack has their own IP Link that they use, but I not sure about this? As far digital transmission my tv either has picture or no signal at all because of the digital conversion. With old system you always had some type of picture signal. I am adding this link to better show what magic jack is: http://www.magicjack.com Best regards, Ralph Sac |
