this is fun... ill just assign numbers to ur replies 1. 20 day crap? ive been told that u need to wait or else the transfer wont complete. and my virtual number works, my real number doesnt work yet b/c its not transferred. 2.correct, they are not connected yet. the base is connected to the phone jack using the local telephone companies line, not vonage. the vonage is connected a cable modem which is in my room. 3. the office is where my mom works, which is where the base is, its just a home office, not a work office 4.and this was just responding to your confusion... which should be sorted out now
