inclusive minutes you want, and whether you are a consumer or business buyer. "Recognising the need for residents and small businesses to have myriad of options when setting up their networks, Vonage is excited to partner with Linksys to continue to lead the way in transforming how people communicate," stated Jeffrey A Citron, chairman and CEO of Vonage
Holdings Corp. "More importantly, the Wireless-G Router bundled with Vonage's service is the next step in modernising an archaic telecommunications network. No longer will people be stuck VoIP Main Page
in the past and tied down to communications systems that fail to offer true mobility." "By providing customers with both the hardware and service they need to make high-quality phone calls over their broadband connection, customers get a better overall value and user experience," said Mike Wagner, Linksys director of worldwide marketing. "Marketing the product and service together enables us to educate more customers about the benefits and cost savings VoIP can provide." Other key features of the Wireless-G Broadband Router (54

caller ID, and FSK voicemail. There's also 256-bit encryption and support for both Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected

US buyers will also get a $50 rebate slip that they can use against the Vonage service after their initial 90 days of service. Vonage are pushing hard to
expand their VoIP offering. They are spending large amount of money on advertising in the US (rumoured to be around $88m), and now, with this tie-up with Linksys, taking it directly to consumers who are buying broadband equipment. The support for both
WiFi and VoIP Main Page
SIP leaves the door wide open for expanding in to wire-free calling too. Vonage Linksys WRT54GP2
