The Vonage V-Portal; No Virgin Jokes Necessary

January 7th, 2008 by Joanna Stern

vportalWe haven’t heard the last of Vonage or the virgin jokes on this blog. The VoIP service introduced today the Vonage V-Portal, a digital voice adapter and single port router with a built-in LCD.

The V-Portal, or VDV21, has a integrated screen which provides customers with installation instruction, real-time feedback, and error messaging, allowing users troubleshoot basic issues. The screen also can be used for Caller ID, timing calls, and to log calls made and received. Users can test their bandwidth, receive network status information, and adjust the brightness of the backlight with the device. In default mode, the LCD displays date and time and lets users know if they have voicemail waiting or if they’ve missed a call.

By plugging the V-Portal into a broadband internet connection, users are given two unique Vonage lines for calling or faxing.

The Vonage V-Portal is available to new customers for $9.99 after a $70 instant rebate. That deal will have you singing that Vonage jingle all night long…
