Want to install Vonage(VOIP) in Delhi

[harmanjot]

Hello Ashinusa,I have the same airtel connection as you have, the same modem you are using, Linksys phone adapter from Vonage and D-Link's wireless router. In my phone adapter(Linksys) the PHONE LED doesn't become stable green, so I am not getting the dialtone from my phone and thus unable to place a call. I was getting the dialtone when I had not connected the wireless router (Dlink) and was able to place calls to U.S. and Canada.Can you help me with the settings of my coonections. Airtel people are not able to help. Say that their internet is working fine and they know nothing about vonage.Thank you in anticipation,Harman in Chandigarh

Your posts have been very helpful. I use Comcast in Calif, USA. I am leaving for Delhi in two weeks. My father also has the Airtel home broadband option. He has to dial-ip to get the DSL connected.
I have bought the same router. I just need to use it to share the DSL between my father's machine and my laptop with a wireless card. My question is - doesn't the router have to do the dial-up for the DSL? I cannot find anything in the router documentation which says it can do this. Is this the right router then or do I need another kind?
I know the posts have been talking about also using the Vonage box - what was not clear was are they using 'always-on' DSL or a dial-up.
I would really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks in advance

Hi Folks,
Just wanted to let you know that I had given this setup a shot with Broadvoice service as well and it worked great. I brought the Vonage adapter back with me and left the Sipura adapter for Broadvoice out there. It is working fine for me for talking to my parents. Voice quality is just great.

Sorry for the late reply. I have been busy visiting relatives here and I don't have a dial-up connection to move around with.
The adapter I am using for the VOIP is the Linksys Vonage adapter with the router built in. But I am using it behind the Netgear wireless router and am not using its routing capabilites. The voice quality is just great. Feels the same as when I use the same adapter on my 3 Mbps connection in the US. Believe me, even a regular phone line doesn't give this much clarity. I have the Vonage settings at highest quality(90 kbps).
I am using an adapter which gives me 220 V AC--> 5 V DC.
I have no idea about the legality of this setup. But  I am not using it commercially so I feel it should be ok. I have seen places which let you place VOIP calls for a charge.

My network setup is the Yozan modem -- Netgear wireless-G router -- Linksys Vonage device. I also bought a Sipura adapter before coming here. I might give it a shot with Broadvoice service as it is slightly cheaper and also gives free calling to UK and Australia. I will update the post once I have done that.

Hi ashinusa

I saw ur post that u had successfully connected broadvoice at your home. I tired installing my broadvoice at my home and not able to get the dial tone. Can you pls let me know what special configuration you did. I purchased the Broadvoice's Router & Phone adaptor. Your help would be greatly appreceated.

Thanks

dunno specific abt the broadvoice, but typically u need to check if the BV router talks to to your dsl modem via enthernet on a static IP or a PPPoE.If your modem is working on PPPoe then the BV router can be setup for connecting to a static IP (IP of modem)Otherwise U need to config the BV router to make a PPPoE connection to modem.

Hi Folks,
I live in VA, USA. I just helped my relatives in India to get their Vonage working in Delhi.

They have Airtel DSL service and a Vonage Linksys RTP300 Router. All I needed to do was the follow the config instructions here:

But first---Make sure your PC is setup for DHCP.

http://www.vonage.com/help.php?article=902&category=90&nav=3

More specifically for the DSL connection follow this:
http://www.vonage.com/help.php?article=902...ry=90&nav=3#DSL

Quoted here

For DSL Modem Users

You may need to configure PPP-over-Ethernet (PPPoE) to work with the RTP300 Router. This sounds complicated, but it can be completed in just a few steps. Here's what to do:

Open your Web browser on your computer. Enter http://192.168.15.1 (the RTP300 Router's default IP address) in the address field of your browser and hit the ENTER key.
A screen with fields for your username and password will appear. Enter \"admin\" in both fields for now (you should set a new password later using the Administration tab's Management screen). Then click OK.
Click on the SETUP tab and select \"PPPoE\" as your Internet Connection Type.
Enter the username, password and service name (if required) provided by your ISP. This is the same info you enter every time you log in.
Select KEEP ALIVE.
Click the SAVE SETTINGS button.
Click the STATUS tab and then the ROUTER tab.
Click the CONNECT button to start the Internet connection.
Check for internet access.

[/b]

This works for sure!
I made NO other setting change from the default config of the router. Here is how I got them to connect the things...

DSL Modem >>> Vonage Router >>>> PC

Hope this helps someone
Rajiv
