Linksys WRT54GP2 Wireless-G Broadband Router for Vonage Internet Phone Service
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is really four devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect both screaming fast Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at 11Mbps) devices to the network. There's also a built-in 3-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs directly, or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. The Router function lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. The fourth function is the phone adapter, which enables high-quality feature-rich telephone service through your high-speed connection even while you're surfing the Internet. There are two standard telephone jacks, each operating independently - like having two phone lines. With Vonage, you'll get low domestic and international phone rates, Caller ID, Call Waiting, Voicemail, Call Forwarding, Distinctive Ring, and lots of other available special phone features. To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Broadband Router can encode all wireless transmissions with up to 256-bit encryption, and supports both Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and the industrial-strength wireless security of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users' access to the Internet. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility. With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games, and turn that Internet connection into a high-quality, high-value telephone service!

Linksys WRT54GP2 Wireless-G Broadband Router for Vonage Internet Phone Service Reviews
On very rare occasions I have to reboot the router, usually due to voltage fluctations when we have thunder storms. I've been using one of these router for years in my home. Some times there is heavy and prolonged downloading so I set up QOS in the router and the vonage works great. Otherwise this router has been a real trooper. We have several ethernet LAN computers connected along with several wireless laptops.
We have 6 of these 2 failed within 15 days Linksys refused to offer support and tech support said they would call back but never do. This is after 8 calls to them. We will not buy any more of their products. Lousy product and No support after the sale.
I think it works pretty well. Overall good buy. I've had this unit for about 3 years. It occasionally has some "issues." Just unplug it for a few minutes and it usually resets and is OK.
I signed up for Vonage almost 2 years ago and I had problems from the start. Linksys may servive selling its junk but Vonage will be a thing of the past in 2 years max. I did as I was told, but I hung on to the Vonage service and downgraded to the 14.99/month rate just to have a 2nd line in the house. Bad equipment+ bad service = a failed company. I was told by Vonage that I would have to buy a new adapter if I wanted to restore my service.
That was the last straw for me. It was still a struggle to maintain with the complaints of dropped calls and terrible sound quality. The the Lynksis Router died last week and could not be revived. My wife demanded that we return to the Comcast digital service.
works well/ linksys is the best product in the market today. period.
