I just bought the Linksys Vonage router and subscribed to the service on Sunday for my home line. It has been working pretty good over the past 4 days, but making calls today has been pretty tough because they are having some type of issue.

It is $20 cheaper than Verizon a month and I love the free unlimited long distance (i.e., I don't have to worry about burning up my cell phone minutes for long distance calling), but I am worrying about the reliability of the system. Anybody have any experience with VOIP/Vonage/internet telephone systems?

I would like to get their business plan for $49.99 a month with unlimited calling and a separate fax line, but I cannot afford to have reliability issues with the business line. Now, that isn't to say that I haven't had reliability issues with Verizon in the past (i.e., 3 days without phone service at a time). I just don't want to end up with something worse.
