Switch connection order and bypass router?

May 29th, 2009
Is there a way to change the connection order from router >> vonage >> computer to router >> computer >> vonage? I'm living in a basement suite and sharing the cable bill and connection with my landlords upstairs, who happen to have the modem and router. This makes plugging the Vonage unit into the router a bit of a problematic task. If the unit can pass the internet through to my computer, shouldn't I be able to pass internet through to it? If not through my computer, what about via a bridge? Read More

telephone DSL vs. cable broadband Vonage connection

TeleNav !!!

May 29th, 2009
I recommend telenav. I have telenav with AT&t in the states and I can't live without it, literally. I have had a Garmin nuvi 750 and TomTom GO 720, and Telenav literally has at least twice the POI. I remember those expensive map updates too, telenav has FREE map, poi, voice, etc updates. I first saw TeleNav mentioned in the New York Times and then I went to their website:telenav.com $10/month is a great deal, especially considering it offers more features than a $600 standalone unit. Read More
