[brlug-general] anyone using Vonage over Cox Cable successfully?

[Christian Tortorich]

Couldn't you just release the lease on the laptop if that's the case? 

Ipconfig /release all

If not woundt a $20 wireless B hub/switch solve this for you? 

Hugs,
Chris

Nah. you'd have had to call Cox and get them to manually expire the DHCP

lease assigned to your laptop's MAC address.  I stuck the Vonage ATA 
behind my OBSD firewall so I didn't experience that issue (did have to 
make some firewall rule changes to prioritize VOIP SIP traffic)
