MagicJack Build

[rickss69]

I have decided to dump my Comcast phone service and go with the MagicJack. This pc I built just for it will run 24/7...

A little overboard on the case but I wanted something that had at least a little class to it lol. I used one of my old SuperTalent 32GB ssd's so there would be no extra heat generated. I'm quiet pleased at how it turned out and hopefully it will run trouble free for a long period of time.

Can this be connected to the phone system in the house so all phone jacks work?

Should be able to. Only problem to watch for is incoming ring, depending on how many phones you may have to turn off the ringer on some.

Yep!

But that would defeat the purpose of connecting to the actual phone block located in the house.

Would not all the phones ring till one was answered? Then all would stop ringing once any phone was answered and the connection made? Like a normal phone system in your house.

That is how my internet phone is connected?

It would depend on the "Ringer Equivalency" of your phones and the MagicJack.

Check this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringer_equivalence_number

Also remember there may be a power issue with USB.

More information on the subject if you are not already confused.

Thanks for the info Bob! Don't think I would have a problem.

To run whole house would work better to use a powerd usb port but it will work fine Process Lasso pro also is a good tool to use if you're running magic jack on you're main computer
