Arjunprabhu,

At least someone on this forum shares the same opinion with me. I think most of people here are network geeks who like to play around with issues like ones described here (lost registration, disconnection… etc). People seem to get really excited when they get a new game, a new network puzzle to resolve. Which is not a bad thing at all, but this explains why many guys tolerate such unreliable service. Is VOIPo for network geeks? How about the rest of users who just need a reliable and hassle-free service?

Technical aspects aside, in my case, my Wife is the judge of the service and this is the first VOIP service she hasn't complained about yet.

I’m just curious. Please, tell me more about this. Let’s say your wife is at home and she can make calls with no problems. But at one point she realizes that she got no incoming calls not because no one calls, but because the service was down since the morning (as far as incoming calls). What is your wife’s reaction? I seriously want to know that. Please, explain.


How do you guys deal with this kind of situations here? Maybe most of you guy use VOIPo for business where you sit by the computer whole day, keep your browser open with VPanel page and watch sonnection status? I’m just trying to understated why many people here don’t’ complain about these issues and how they deal with the service which is so unreliable. And moreover, why there are so many people advocate Tim every time there’s a problem? Is that to keep the network-puzzle game running? If not, what then?
