Switching to Freephoneline.ca? " FREE and NOT A SCAM "

Having transferred my home phone and destroying the shackles of a Rogers bundle, I can honestly tell you "I LOVE FREEPHONELINE.CA" It cost me $158.13 (including taxes) to get my old Rogers number transferred and the adapter purchased; and the fact it is FREE for LIFE makes it really AWESOME! Quit paying the minimum $32 Rogers charges for their Home Phone and switch to FreePhoneLine.ca! The phone line quality is exemplary, and it includes everything for a Home Phone (Keeping Your Existing Phone Number, Call Display, Caller ID, Call Forwarding, Voicemail).

FEATURES
  • The freephoneline home phone adapter allows you to make calls to any freephoneline user.
  • Calls to landlines and mobiles in most Canadian cities are included with this service.
  • Caller ID, Call Display, Voicemail, Call Forwarding
  • Send or travel with your adapter anywhere in the world, and talk for free using your local number, as long as you have INTERNET!
HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED
  • Freephoneline account with correct service address information for E911 purpose.
  • High Speed Internet (broadband) connection.
  • Router with spare network port (ethernet RJ45), or network that provides DHCP IP address.
  • For use with standard analogue home phones (pulse dialing not supported).
  • Standard North American power outlet
STEP 1:
Sign Up for a FREE User Account, and download their software to use the phone on your computer.

STEP 2:
Call them up "1-866-515-5550" and say you want to ORDER the adapter ($99), and keep your existing home number ($25). They will send you some forms to sign to get your number transferred (ported), and will take care of your transfer and disconnection. So DON'T call your current phone company to cancel.

STEP 3:
Once you get your adapter in the mail, attach it to your router, connect and start using your phone with the phone number you signed up for in Step 1. This number would be temporary until the transfer of your current phone number completes.

NOTE: I just needed to configure minor things in my router and needed to move the main Phone base station closer to the router to get everything to work perfectly.

I will post further details of the unboxing of the adapter, configuring of my router, and pictures of the process later.
