I must have one telemarketeer (like racketeer) who has at least 15 numbers (at least so far).Originally posted by: georgepa
GTFan-
The problem with "unknown caller" block is that international calls usually come in that way. I have family in Europe, and whenever they call it shows as "unknown caller." A block like that would make it impossible for them to reach me. I registered with the No-Call list and if there is a pesky telemarketer that calls a lot I put them on the individual block list. I get some telemarketer calls, but I just let them go to voicemail. They usually don't leave a message.
I saw someone mention something about known routers that don't work in the Modem --> Router --> Gizmo setup. Is there a known list at all?
For now I have an SMC 7004BR router ....

To anyone who has renewed their one year service with SunRocket:
I received an email that my one year service was over on March 11, so I followed the link and told them that I wanted to go another year (13 mos. actually). I got a response that an "email will be sent to you confirming" my choice.
But now when I log onto the website under my account I still see the notice that my service will expire on March 11 and that I should enter my renewel information. I'm afraid to enter it again: either I'll confuse them or be double-billed? Anyway, I hope that, come March 11th, they'll know that I chose the one year continuance (instead of automatically enrolling me in the month-to-month plan).
Has anyone had this experience?
Same here I called 2 weeks ago and renewed and got my 4 new phones, but have yet to be charged the $199.

If the order didn't go through as of yet (still some time left) it may not be a bad thing. I think daweezy mentioned that if you call them directly they will throw in another pair of Uniden phones with the renewal. So, instead of using the link I will call them next week directly to get the 2 phones as well as the extra month.
Call them up at 1-800-786-0132. I would probably try their SALES department in Canada (instead of CS in the Phillipines.) So, choose SALES instead of TECH SUPPORT or BILLING. Then ask them about the status of your renewal request. If they see it ask them for the extra phones. If they don't see it tell them to scratch it and enter the renewal order with the 2 free phones. Might as well take advantage of the extra value they are willing to throw in with the renewal.

So If I hook it up in the Modem -> Router -> Gizmo setup, which port on the Gizmo do I use? ANd do I need a crossover cable or is a normal cable good enough?
Also do I need to forward certain ports and things to make sure the GIzmo works as it's supposed to?
It took two months for mine to get done...months!Originally posted by: azoomee

Well I got mine up last night. I have my house wired so I just used a normal Cat5 cable and plugg the gizmo in intothe LAn jack in my bedroom for testing. It connected right up and after a few minutes all the lights were on as normal. I could make an outgoing call andit worked fine. Now I just have to wait until the inbound calls start working.

Nice! Do you mean you have it wired through hard lines in your house as opposed to the cordless phones?

I have my house wired with CAT5 cable. Eventually the Gizmo will end up in the basement by my cable modem and router and such but for now it's just plugged into my LAN in my bedroom. The phone is still connected to the Gizmo Phone 1 port as normal. And eventually I'll plug my home phone wiring into the Gizmo so I can still use all thep hone I normally use.

That's not a bad way to do it.
If I ever get motivated I might do that--at the omoment I have coax and Cat-5 strung around my house for various computers and TVs. The phones are at least wireless, so one less hassle, but if I get bored one weekend I might try to run all that through the walls, and if I do, I'll try to do that with my SunRocket as well.
