I was able to change my number yesterday too.
I was surprised to see that my new SIP password was 12 digits (rather than the old 4 digit password). This means brute forcing someone else's password is not really an option anymore, simply because there are too many passwords to try. Even brute forcing my own password will take up to 10 days using Cain. I suppose I could distribute the workload among various machines and cut that time down some too...
Of course, if finding your SIP credentials is your goal, there are much easier approaches than brute force... |

| I used the tech chat this morning. My magic jack is once again functional, and my number has been switched successfully. A big thanks to henok and amange for their help. |

Why would you want to learn someone else's password??? Maybe the answer is in your username.... |

|
|
| [font=Courier New:8ae7894bc8] [/font:8ae7894bc8]I keep hearing about being able to port one's old number to magicjack. My situation is the comcast promotional rate ends this month and we were hoping to be able to keep our number and just transfer it to the magicjack system and cancel our phone service through comcast. Can someone let me know if this is possable and if so, how do I go about it? |

|
|
I just changed my initial M/J phone number to one that's actually in my area code as of this week.
Not only did the change happen right away, but the service said they're going to forward phone calls from my other number to my new number for the next 30 days. That's nice of 'em.... now if I could only port my existing home number to M/J, I'd be set. I use a cordless phone now for MagicJack (bought it from magicvoicephone.com ) and it works great all over the house.

The cordless phone from this website is 2.4 ghz. doesn't 2.4 ghz interfere with wireless networks? OK for only wired systems but I don't believe this is good for wireless networks. |

So why is this old thread still a sticky?
Looks like this forum needs a couple more mods to help clean up things around here.
(FYI - that's doesn't mean I'm volunteering...)
