I have otimum cable modem now, but also used a wireless clear modem and it worked fine either way.

The minimum internet speed requirement is 128 kbps upload and 768 kbps download, from FAQ on their website.

Dial up will not work, but basic high speed DSL or Cable will work fine. The minimum internet speed requirement recommended by Phone Power is 128 kbps upload and 768 kbps download. Most packages today are beyond this. What is more important than the speed is jitter. You can test the jitter at http://www.phonepower.com/speedtest . I have taken my service with me to 3rd World Countries where the connection was less than the recommended 128/768 and still placed high quality calls because the jitter was low. Phone Power also has a lower quality codec that you can set on your account that uses less bandwidth and will work quite well on lower speed connections.

You can test your connection at http://www.phonepower.com/speedtest and the site will let you know if your connection will support VOIP.

As per the Phone Power website: the minimum internet speed requirement is 128 kbps upload and 768 kbps download. You may test your internet connection at http://www.phonepower.com/wiki/Speed_Test.

You could call their customer service, look at their web site. I got charter, 30mps, never had a problem. If I were to guess, it would be about a 2 meg connection

Usually a 5 mbps is good enough, but depending on your usage and number of active devices on your network, in some cases 20 mbps would be barely enough.. xBox, streaming on multiple TV ..etc. can affect the performance of your phone power at times. Need to test your speed at Speedtest.net and also don't forget peak usage times during the day/evening when kids come back form school ..etc.

Sorry, I don't use that service in my home so can't reply with an accurate answer. I checked the manual and could find no information about VOIP.

According to the manufacturer's website, it will support speeds up to 343Mbps downstream and 122 Mbps upstream. However, check with your cable provider to make sure it will work at the speeds you need using their network. Brighthouse seems to think it wouldn't be acceptable for their Lightning 300 Mbps package.Sources:http://www.ubeeinteractive.com/products/cable/voice-gateways/dvw3201b-advanced-wireless-voice-gatewayhttp://support.brighthouse.com/Article/Modem-User-Guide-Fact-Sheet-9115/

Jeff, I don't believe your connection speed will be limited by the top end of the device, whatever that might be, but by your service provider.

You will need a reliable internet connection for this item to work. Thanks.

1921 is not support your requirement. CISCO 3925 is good for you. It is 100 Mbps. If 4 PC equal bandwidth, 3.75Mbps each., totally is 15 Mbps.

I am no expert at VOIP, but the RE has an Ethernet port for hard wiring network devices. I'd suggest calling Amped Wireless directly, they have excellent tech support.

Hello, FRANKLIN SPRINGER.I have used it with the Internet and DLNA and that last one does not have more of downloading 10Mbps and promotion when in the description is selling like high-speed even of 300Mbps.Try to use it in the USB ports with hard drive of 1TB and also gave the same downloading speed and promotion.The reference it mistakes telephony in the description and I thought it was a servers and SIP for customers only SIP.The truth is the high cost is preferable to buy a Buffalo for the same price, and even less since the end just use wireless Internet for DNLA since it does not do me at that speed.

Regular broadband connection should work fine . I have a 3mbps speed internet connection and it works fine.

You would need at least 4 mbps (mega bits per second) Internet speed. My advice: buy GL box, Zaap TV is junk

No, it'll take whatever address the router issues because nothing needs to connect to the phone. The phone connects with whatever voip service you use, so as long as it can reach the Internet and no one is filtering voip traffic you're good.

Voice will work. Data will work as EDGE. That means sloooooooooow, really slow.

Yes that's correct. My client upgraded their 10/100 switch to help alleviate problems with VoIP and it fixed the phone problems right away.

So far so good! No problems with internet speed, etc. You need to have patience with the internet service technicians to get the modem set up for the voice or telephone connection. Just a couple of tries and you're all set. Do not let them change it for another one. Go for it!

This is a DOCIS 2.0 modem, it is rated for a max. download speed of 38Mbit/s and upload speed of 27Mbit/s. Your service provider may limit you to slower speed. If you want higher speed, you need to get a DOCIS 3.0 modem.

Ooma's website lists a satellite connection as an acceptable high-speed Internet connection. However, I'm running a similar Obihai 110 device (that links to Google Voice) across an Excede satellite and it is usually comparable to talking across a fairly poor cell phone connection due to satellite time lags that can exceed one second.
