I am a MagicJack user who has been searching for a practical way to use my MagicJack on a Ubuntu machine. My old PC with Vista is horribly slow but I keep Vista on it just to enable the MagicJack device. Otherwise it would be on Ubuntu already.
Anyway, some have gotten MagicJack to work but always in a way that does not allow use of all features, phones, etc. So I did some searching and I think I found the answer for all Linux users!!
The link above is to NetTalk and it does not even need a computer. It can plug in directly to the router itself. I was amazed after reading about how it can work from the router via ethernet instead of relying on a computer to host software for it. It's $69.95 to buy it and includes the first year, which is more expensive than the $39.95 for MagicJack. Plus its annual cost is $29.95 versus $19.95 for MagicJack. But other than that I can't see much difference, plus it would free up my PC to install Linux and be functional again.
Anyone using NetTalk and not relying on a Windows OS to do so? How is your experience? I want Ubuntu on that machine, but only if I can confirm the system works as well or better than my MagicJack.
