Gen 3 This generation caused some confusion because those who possessed it, and never saw a Gen 2 believed they had a Gen 2 because of the small silver'ish square behind the top of the 'J' (believed to be the white rectangle referred to as the distinguishing feature between Gens 1 and 2). Likewise, those who possessed a Gen 2, but never a Gen 1 believed this was a Gen 1 because it didn't have the large white rectangle described above. It's not clear whether this device offers any improvement over Gen 2, or whether it is just an engineering change to reduce manufacturing costs.

It may be more appropriate to refer to this generation as 2a. It is best identified by:. A small silver'ish square behind the top of the 'J', with solder points on both sides. No tall, round metal thing immediately to the right. Just a largely empty space. I have a MJ that is still working without MJMD5 it is similar to to the Gen3 pictured here except it is missing resistor R7 (bank of resistors in the upper left.

5th resistor in from left to right)like the Gen2 device is also missing Why does (or doesn't) my softphone start automatically? Windows In the user forums, some people describe starting the softphone by plugging in the MagicJack USB device. Others refer to using a shortcut to start it. The difference is that the latter group of people have. The USB device presents itself as a CD-ROM.

This is why autorun detects it and automatically starts it. Some people disable this feature because of possible security risks.

In this case, they have to start MagicJack using the shortcut on the desktop which MagicJack automatically creates. Can I use MagicJack with satellite, muni-wifi, cellular (EVDO) broadband? Probably not. These forms of communication suffer from latency, which VOIP is susceptible to. However, there have been reports of it working. You can try a VOIP speed test to see how your connection scores. Be sure to wait for the five vertical tabs on the right side.

Go to the summary tab, and look at the 'detailed analysis.' This is more important than the summary information. It will show you the actual delay and speed, not just the 'max.' The averages can be more important than the max. Can I use MagicJack with dial-up internet? Probably not.

MagicJack requires 100kbs up and down. Dial up is less than that, with potentially high latency. Can I use a cordless phone with my MagicJack? Yes, you can.

However, cordless phones operating at 2.4GHz are known to interfere with Wi-Fi wireless B/G networks (IEEE b/g operating at 2.4GHz). Cordless phones operating at 5.8GHz or higher will not interfere with Wi-Fi. If any computers in your house use wireless connections to your router, you should carefully consider which frequency of cordless phone that you use.

Do I need to open ports through my firewall? The following sub-section is for novice users so they can better understand the concepts and terminology used in this answer. If you're familiar with routers and networking, skip to.

Concepts and terminology A router separates the network into a Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN). The WAN is often called 'the internet,' 'extranet' or 'public network.' The LAN is often called 'the intranet' or 'private network.' This separation allows multiple computers in the LAN, with their own private IP addresses (usually in the 192.168.x.x range) to share one public IP address (usually assigned by your service provider). This is accomplished using Network Address Translation (NAT).

A way to map traffic intended for one destination back to its originator (on your LAN). NAT (and other router features) prevent computers on the WAN from opening (initiating) connections to computers on the LAN.

To allow this kind of access, routers provide a feature called 'port forwarding.' A rule can be written specifying the criteria for the WAN-initiated connection (such as the port on the WAN side of the firewall), and which LAN computer it should be forwarded to. This is called 'opening a port' and essentially bypasses your firewall. Most software is written to initiate (open) a connection from the LAN computer to the WAN computer. Therefore, many people never have to open ports (WAN to LAN). Routers also allow security-conscious users to eliminate access from the LAN to the WAN except for ports that are explicitly allowed.

Magicfeatures 2.0

This is common in business environments. But, uncommon for users of consumer-grade routers. The question of opening ports This topic is a source of significant confusion for the following reasons:. 'Opening ports' is commonly understood to mean opening ports from the WAN into your LAN. But, less commonly, it can also mean opening ports from your LAN to the WAN when access to the internet has been intentionally restricted. Some consumer-grade routers have buggy firmware.

They often work with MagicJack by disabling the firewall, or forwarding ports from the WAN to the LAN, (perhaps large ranges of ports), which is equivalent to disabling the firewall (to various degrees). MagicJack support tells customers to open some ports, but not all ports used by MagicJack.The confusion occurs because those who recommend opening ports rarely qualify their suggestion to indicate why, or under what circumstances they've seen this necessary. The first thing to understand is: MagicJack's servers open no ports on your computer. All connections are initiated by the MagicJack softphone to MagicJack servers. This means there is never a reason to open ports (port forwarding) from the WAN to the LAN.

The only people who have benefited from opening ports (port forwarding) from WAN to LAN are those with buggy router firmware, as described below. Buggy router firmware Some consumer-grade routers have buggy firmware. Something about MagicJack's traffic confuses their NAT processing. This has been reported the most by users of newer Linksys routers, coinciding with a report of a known problem with Linksys WRT54G router firmware, v. (The problems reported are usually calls terminated after exactly 30 seconds, and the phone ringing indefinitely after a call has been answered by voice mail. See the FAQ Answer: ).

The easiest way to determine whether your router has buggy firmware is to eliminate your router by connecting directly to the modem. Otherwise, disable your router (often done by enabling 'DMZ' mode for the IP address of the LAN computer running MagicJack). See the below.

If your router firmware is buggy, the possible solutions are:. Upgrade the router's firmware to the latest version found on the manufacturer's product page (web site). Replace the router's firmware with an open source firmware such as Tomato or DD-WRT. (The added benefit of this solution is that you will have additional features, including robust.). Buy a different router. Open ports (port forwarding, WAN to LAN) on your router, or enable DMZ mode.

(See the below.).The option to open ports (either selectively, or using DMZ mode) is just to bypass the router's buggy NAT translation. It is not because MagicJack servers initiate connections. To selectively open ports, you should familiarize yourself with. You will see that there are a very large number of ports that may require opening. The more ports you open, the more it's like disabling your firewall (see the below). One user of a buggy Linksys router reported a workaround using only one open port: The port which the MagicJack softphone connects to on the LAN side of the router when the softphone is idle (not in a call). His solution was to use to see the connections made by 'MagicJack.exe'.

Two or more of those connections will be to a port with a very high number (30000 to 70000) in the 'Local Address' column. Using that port number, go into your router and use the 'Port Forwarding' to forward that port to the IP address of the computer running the MagicJack softphone. This solution makes no sense and demonstrates the buggy nature of some newer Linksys routers.

It treats an internal (LAN) port as an external (WAN) port. There is no actual traffic to forward on that WAN port. It's just a way to trick the router's buggy firmware. The benefit of this solution is that you only have to open one port, reducing your risk to external (WAN) threats. The downside is that you'll have to do this every time you start MagicJack because the port changes.Warning: Running without a router (or in DMZ mode) can expose your computer(s) to external threats resulting in viruses, spambot and spyware infestation. Depending upon your tolerance for risk and how long you operate without the router, you may want to use a software firewall on every computer exposed to the WAN.

How can I contact MagicJack? MagicJack provides an unadvertised phone number for billing support but no mailing address or phone number for technical support. Technical support is provided exclusively by chat. Note that you must click a couple links to get to a page where you are asked to search for a solution before having the opportunity to start a chat session. You can search for anything, and then you will see a link saying 'If you are not satisfied with the answer below, click here to chat with a Live Agent Representative.'

The best advice for using MagicJack chat support is to be prepared for a long chat session. Don't get angry or frustrated. Keep in mind that the chat rep is probably just as frustrated to repeat the same pointless scripted suggestions as you are to hear them. It is a formality they are required to do before escalating a problem, or providing a replacement. If you're not in the right frame of mind, you'll only waste your own time.

You might as well wait to start the chat until you're in the right mood, with a lot of free time. Escalation When using support chat, it has been reported that customers have the right to request escalation. This may be useful if, after spending 3 hours going through the standard scripted resolutions the problem isn't resolved. If you request escalation you'll be sent to a chat supervisor. From there you can ask that your issue be escalated to the engineering staff. You may not get a tracking number, nor any further contact. You may have to continue going back to chat support asking for an update to what you already escalated.

It has also been reported that users with no resolution were able to get a resolution merely by contacting chat support a few hours (or days) later. It appears that the quality of the support you receive depends on which chat rep you get. Or, perhaps they keep a log of your requests, and eventually realize you're not going away. Also, it has been reported that users who go back for unresolved problems are put through the 3-hour scripted process each time they go back. It has been noted by one user that simply acting like you're following their instructions can be an effective stress-reducer. You can just say 'ok, I've done that.

What's next?' Let them go through their exercise which they're required to follow.

Then you sign up with MagicJack for a random number and change it in your account under 'My Subscriptions'.

You can chat online with a live 'agent' (I believe it was a computer) and they can help you but the key is, signing up first with a random number.Problems How do I fix common handset problems? If you use a handset attached to the MagicJack device, and you have trouble. Numbers pressed on the handset keypad (tones) not recognized by the softphone. Incoming calls don't cause phone to ring.

People you call can't hear you, or of low volume. No caller id displayed on a (caller id-capable) handset.The first thing to check is the softphone's Menu-Telephone/Headset setting.

Be sure it's set for Telephone. This setting can be changed either by Menu-switch to phone (you'll see option as 'switch to headset' if it's set for phone) or by Menu-Volume/Headset Control dialog box. This setting apparently changes to headset if softphone is run without MJ dongle present. The second thing to check is the softphone's Menu-Volume/Headset Control. Be sure the microphone volume is turned up.

Experiment with different speaker and microphone volumes, as the perfect setting is specific to your individual machine/handset. MagicJack recommends that both of them be 1/3 of the volume. It has been experienced that the volume setting can inexplicably change. (Perhaps due to other programs changing the sound card's line-in volume, affecting other applications.).

Also, if possible, check the volume settings on your handset/headset. To isolate problems, try the softphone with a headset connected to the computer's speaker/mic jacks. If you can make successful calls, this indicates the problem is specific to the handset, USB device and/or USB port.

USB power issues This is a common problem which appears to be the MagicJack USB power requirement is more than the host device can supply power to it. If MagicJack is plugged into a desktop computer or laptop, try using another USB port or powered USB hub. If MagicJack is plugged into a USB hub, try using another USB hub that is powered by an AC wall adapter. If MagicJackPlus is plugged into a USB AC wall adapter, try using another USB AC wall adapter. It is recommended to try a USB AC wall adapter that is meant for a tablet, since most can source up to 2 Amps. Users have reported problems with the USB AC wall adapter that was shipped with the MagicJack.Using a powered USB hub is often reported to fix handset problems.

However, be aware that not all powered hubs are created equal. They too can skimp on power. If a powered hub doesn't fix the problem, try it without anything else connected to the hub. Consider the power capacity which should be printed on the AC adapter.

And, try another hub. See also the FAQ:. USB issues can also contribute to 'choppy voice.' See the How-To:. Connector issues It has been reported by a few people that the pig-tail USB cable supplied with MagicJack (as of late 2008) isn't high quality and may cause problems with handset usage.

This connector problem can result in mysterious shutdown (and perhaps restart) of the softphone. See the FAQ:. This is not specific to using a handset, but may be aggravated by the fact that using a handset may cause more movement of the USB device. A quick test is to connect the USB device directly to a USB port. Or, use another USB extension cable of higher quality. Why doesn't my handset display caller ID?

It could be related to insufficient power to the USB device. See this FAQ answer concerning. Also see this workaround involving. The downloadable Magicfeatures Plugin for magicJack provides a proper permanent fix to the real underlying caller id display problem. It also provides full caller id name display support with real time online reverse number lookup as well as call waiting caller id support. Note: The upgrade seemed to cause this fix to stop working for some people. It was later reported that experimenting with different resisters helped, and one person.

Also one report that the USB device's case may contribute to this problem, and that. How do I fix choppy (garbled/robot) voice? This is caused by not enough CPU power, using wireless, bandwidth competition (which is helped using ), or the MagicJack proxy you are connected to (which can be tested using. For a complete walkthrough, see the How-To:. How do I fix echo problems? Echo was a greater problem with the first generation of MagicJack devices sold prior to May 2008. An echo cancellation utility was used to reduce echo.

The new generation(s) have anti-echo features built into the device. (See FAQ Answer: ). However, it's possible to still hear echo using new generations of the device. These are possible solutions:. Go into the softphone's Menu (in the system tray near the clock) -Volume/Headset control and turn the microphone volume down.

When dialing the number, use a star (.) in the second position. For example, if you were going to dial 555-555-5555, dial 5.55-555-5555. Be aware that the softphone may try to dial the number before you enter the last digit.

You may have to go to your 'Calls' history, single click the failed call so it fills into the text entry field, add the last digit, and then click 'Send.' . Notes:. This (.) trick used to be referred to as the.67 trick.

However, the latter stopped functioning after an upgrade late Dec. 2008,. The. trick may also be a workaround to MJ being. Handset users have reported mixed results between the MagicJack USB device and the handset. In headset mode to remove echo, instead of using the computer speakers, use headphones and your regular regular microphone.Why can't I call certain numbers? This problem affects a few people.

It's not understood why. One workaround is:. When dialing the number, use a star (.) in the second position. For example, if you were going to dial 555-555-5555, dial 5.55-555-5555. Be aware that the softphone may try to dial the number before you enter the last digit. You may have to go to your 'Calls' history, single click the failed call so it fills into the text entry field, add the last digit, and then click 'Send.'

. Note that this. trick used to be referred to as the.67 trick.

However, the latter stopped functioning after an upgrade late Dec. 2008,. Magicjack can't call 'high cost' surcharged numbers such as chat lines or conference lines, as well as 900 or 976 numbers, and some surcharged exchanges in Alaska which are subject to high-cost connection rates. If you have a cell phone you can probably call them at no extra cost. If you really want to call one of these numbers from Magic Jack, you can buy international minutes and use those.Note: that the.

trick may also be a workaround for. Why do my calls disconnect?

If you connect to your router wirelessly, this could be due to wireless interference. To eliminate this as a possible cause, connect to your router using a wire (and be sure you're actually connecting with the wire by disabling your wireless connection either on your computer, or in your router's admin screen). This is relevant.

30-second inbound disconnect This problem is reported occasionally. It seems to be related to newer Linksys routers with buggy firmware, an inability to handle Network Address Translation (NAT) properly.

The only way to find out if you're affected by this problem is to bypass your router and connect directly to your cable/DSL modem. Be aware that this can expose you to external threats which a router protects you from. You shouldn't do it (for long) without a software firewall. For more information, see the FAQ Answer: Do I need to open ports through my router?,.

In addition to the 30-second disconnect, users of newer Linksys routers have reported a problem where the phone keeps ringing even after it was answered by voice mail., and that, like the 30-second disconnect, it could only be fixed by eliminating the firewall (putting the router in a DMZ, etc.). Why can't I boot with the USB device connected? Windows The BIOS of computers contains an option to choose the 'boot devices' or 'boot sequence.' This contains the devices which should be attempted to be booted from, and the order they should be attempted. However, some BIOS/computer manufacturers implemented this feature before it was perfected. It's not uncommon for computers to hang on a non-bootable USB device.

You should go into your BIOS (the keys to press during boot should be displayed on the screen, usually 'Delete' or 'F2' or 'F12') and either remove USB devices from the list of bootable devices, or move that choice lower than the device you want to boot from.Also, booting with the USB device connected implies that you shut down with it connected. Be aware that.Why does my softphone stop (or restart)? This is usually due to a poor fit between the pig-tail connector and the USB device. Movement can cause the connection to be lost, as if you unplugged the USB device. Windows You may hear the familiar 'bee-boop' sound when USB hardware is removed (and maybe added). If you disabled autorun, the softphone will notice the softphone shut down for no reasons.

Otherwise, you may notice that it seems to restart for no reason. A quick test is to connect the USB device directly to a USB port.

Or, use another USB extension cable of higher quality. Why can't I reach voice mail? This is a common problem on MagicJack's servers.

It can only be fixed by MagicJack. However, it seems that chat support is unfamiliar with it. This means you'll be put through hours of scripted diagnostics to fix your system when the problem has nothing to do with your system. You should read the which includes suggestions for escalating and pretending to follow their scripted responses just to satisfy their requirements. A workaround is to add your MagicJack phone number to the softphone's 'Contacts,' and add three asterisks (.) to the end of that number.

It's been reported that this will get you into voice mail. And, also solves problems calling other MagicJack phone numbers. Alternatively, log on to your MagicJack account, go to 'My Numbers' Tab. Add an additional email and password for your voice mail. It would appear that having two email addresses for your voice mail, now makes selection of your first email address effective. This action also enables the user to now access the vmail, and receive voice mail via email.

MagicJack has at least one time issued a number which was already assigned to another party. If you can call out, but cannot receive calls or access voicemail it may be because the number issued was hijacked. You may need to call the number several times throughout the day to see if someone answers the line. If this is the case, you will need to advise tech support that the number is issued to another party and escalate the call to the Engineers to get the number changed for free.

Be aware it will take an un-determined amount of time but is routinely resolved within 48 hours. Cannot see my contact in MagicJack after logging in.
