After testing Vonage in July, I decided to try SunRocket since they were considerably cheaper. Three months later I am still very satisfied with SunRocket.
Positives:
- The majority of calls are excellent and equal to land line quality. There are a few awful connections, however redialing seems to fix the problem.
- Incoming and Outgoing faxing with VentaFax is working flawlessly.
- Tivo Series 1 modem connection is working flawlessly.
- The SunRocket Signature Message Screen works very well to preview incoming voice mails on my PC.
- I love receiving my voice mails in emails on my T-Mobile MDA, (using Exchange Direct Push) for local playback.
Negatives:
- I am having trouble with the "find me" feature to my T-Mobile MDA cell phone. My T-Mobile MDA rings, however when I try to pick up the majority of calls are already on their way to the SunRocket voicemail. I have been adjusting the rings but have yet to find the correct settings. It is clear that ring counts don't match up with associated connection delays between SunRocket and T-Mobile systems.
- I wish SunRocket had an Outlook plug in to dial numbers directly from a contact (one of these days I will get around to writing a simple one).
My decision to purchase a D-Link DFL-210 router and place the SunRocket Gizmo (InnoMedia VOIP router) behind it has proved out to be an excellent choice so far. I am able to dedicate 120Kbps of bandwidth for VOIP calls (when a call is active) while minimizing impact on the rest on my network activity.
