I don't use Vonage or any similar service but my phone service is through my cable company. The cable modem has a connection for my computer and a separate connection for my phone. So, my phone calls are going through a server somewhere. For this reason I think that the phone would work fine through a computer. Also, the owner's manual does not have any restrictions listed for use with a computer.

It should function just fine use it as a dumb phone using wifi for data instead. Just keep an eye on the apps to see if they try to access cellular data.

It is suppose to be a Smart phone but we had trouble connecting to the internet. I would not reccommend it for heavy internet usage.

The processor in the phone is very slow, it has very little memory available - so loading webpages takes FOREVER. Using the internet on this phone is frustrating and would make it hard to get addicted to the internet capabilities. So I guess the long answer to your question is yes.

Yes if you have internet plan with it. I don't use the internet with it. but it has all the features for internet use on it.

Yes, I think so. We bought it for an extra phone to be used only occasionally for a few events a year and for the voicemail. The previous phone we had for this organization was so old it didn't work at the location we had for the events. This phone is a good current phone and appears to work very well for texting and phone calls. I believe it would work for other functions and even internet, etc. if you want it to.

Hi Beccalee. If you can plug and use a standard phone into your internet phone system, then this should work. By "standard phone", I mean a phone that you would buy at any retailer that is made to install into a phone company RJ-11 jack.

You need software or a service to make this IP phone work. Including an Internet connection where the phone is to be. For a single business you can use your own phones/cell phones with a service like evoice.com or ringcentral.com

No. This is old technology. I could barely get old mobile internet. Look for a modern smart phone like an Android or Apple model. Both have features that put the old Nokia N96 to shame.

No this is not a smart phone internet is the old mobile me app. There are Android smart phones that are as tough as this phone that would have this capability.

Yes, provided your phone supports the feature (e.g. Apple's Siri, or Samsung S-Voice). You need an internet connection for those services, though.

Yes you have to have a data plan to use the phone if you want to use the internet unless you plan on only hooking to your own internet. I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone. Doesn't have enough internal memory, freezes up a lot. Total waste of money.

Hi. No, it will just use your internet connection, not the line itself. If you have wifi on your phone or tablet, that would be enough. Have a great day.

Just popping in a phone sim card in it will make it work like a phone.But to have mobile internet you will have to let the technicians at your mobile phone/internet company configure it.In my case i purchased a new sim card just for it.They needed to activate the service for me. If you are a little worried then check with them first before making your purchase. Mine works perfect and i have no regrets.

We have our phone service thru Comcast (VoIP) and it works fine. Handsets are available but you have check with sellers.
