Vonage Outage…I Never Heard

Source: andyabramson.blogs.com

Funny, this morning I called Helene, my fiancee and the cell phone rang. My cell phone, which I have the Vonage line in the Sacramento house programed to ring in case of a service outage. Helene, who I reached on the cell phone figured the router had gotten dislodged by the cat or something last night.

Little did I realize that Vonage had an outage.
