Net2Phone Yap Internet Appliance Jack with 1000-Minute Phone Card (200-5001)

Amazon.com Product Description
Connecting your ISP with your telephone is simple with the Net2Phone Yap Internet Jack--and no computer is necessary. Setup is as easy as plugging it in and entering your ISP and Net2Phone information into the system via the generously sized LCD screen. Plus, with the 1,000-minute phone card included, you'll be making long-distance calls--even international ones--within minutes of opening the box.

The Yap requires just three things: phone service, an analog phone (cordless is fine), and an ISP that uses point-to-point protocol (that means AOL is not compatible). Since your information is stored permanently, you'll be able to make multiple calls without dialing your ISP repeatedly, and the jack is portable wherever a PPP system is available. Net2Phone includes a three-year warranty on the hardware, which covers parts and service.

BEWARE! all support is gone for this product.......2006-12-23

The company that made/promoted/distributed this product, Net2Phone, is still in business but offers no support for their product.
I own two of them and they work very well; I would give it 4 stars;
However since the company behind it does not believe in it any more, that's why I gave 1 star.
So BEWARE !!!

Be careful on their promising rates.......2002-09-24

I have bought this device in a pair and hoped to use for international calls. First of all, it wouldn't work when I tried to connect between the device internationally. I called them and learnt that the network is not proper setup for this. Second, I tried call from abroad to US, which they promised in many website that it same low rate everywhere in the world like you call from PC to phone in US. Instead I got $0.039 a minute as listed from net2phone website, I was charged with $0.10 a minute. I called them but they refuse to adjust the rate by simply saying that the rate is different when I used jap jack device. I tried to speak to their supervisor since they seem to need the decision from him. But they didn't allow me to and promised to call me back within 24 hours instead. After 24 hours, I called them again but they disappear for a while and come back in the phone by bad excuse that the request has been backup. Since that time, I haven't been contact back from so called supervisor.
So Please be careful on the rate they promise. (the rate printed in the manual is even lowe, which is $0.029 but they refuse to do anything on this).

Talk for Cheap.......2002-01-05

This is an incredible product. I gave this product to my 65 year old mother who lives outside the US. She has cut her long distance phone calls by over 90%!! . The phone lines where the yap jack is connected gets good connect speeds when connected to a regular ISP (typically 49,333) hence The quality of the voice calls are excellent at this rate. At 8 PM a night when everyone is connected to the ISP, there is a slight echo, but the audio is never worse than a cell phone call .

This product is only as good as your connection to your local ISP. If you get lousy connect speeds and slow internet responses (*ie slow "PING" responses) with your computer/modem setup then you may be fustrated with this product. The other thing to watch for is the long distance rates. I am not using the Yap Jack as much (Dec 2001) since AT&T is selling long distance calling cards (Typically found at your local SAMS club/Costcos) that have better per minute charges that Yap (to some countries).

*See the ... title "The Sory of Ping" for a overview of what ping is and how you quantify the rosbustness of your internet connection
