Customer Reviews

Puchased it for Teenager WORKS GREAT
I purchased Magic Jack for my 14 year old teenager, Installation was a breeze Magic jack install and updated automatically. The ISP connection She has is DSL at around 1Mbps and voice quality is excellent, no drops or pops. I would highly recommend Majic Jack to any one looking for a second or non primary line. $20 bucks a year cant be beat.

Have no problems so far.
Its funny how alot of reviews that are bad been posted, well i cannot speak for someone's experience, but mine so far have been good so far.
Once u have a great internet connection and good specs on your computer, u will have little or no problems with your calls.
The only draw back is having your computer on all the while, which kinda a sucks with the light bill.
So far i have been saving alot with this device.

Pro's and Con's
After a bit less than one month of usage, here is my input on the MagicJack product:

Pro's:
- Inexpensive
- Voice quality, local and international, quite good (better than cell and near, if not equal, to landline)
- Works with regular landline type phones
- I haven't yet had any call quality or dropped signal problems as mentioned in other reviews

Con's:
- Requires computer to be on full time
- Takes forever to boot
- insists on being in the foreground while booting
- Won't let my computer hibernate or go on standby
- Limited operating system support. Should work with Linux boxes.

I'm in the process of setting up an old XP based laptop to be dedicated to the MagicJack. I'll have about $150 invested in the equipment when I'm done. This will allow me to turn my main computer off when I'm not using it. It should also reduce my electical usage since the laptop will be a minimal configuration machine with only one purpose; running the Magic Jack.

Overall, I recommend the Magic Jack but suggest using it with a cheap low power consumption dedicated computer.
