I have a cable connection to the internet so I doubt I'll have issues. Plus the modem they now use has something in it that, if you place the modem between the cable modem and the router, allows the phone router to take all the bandwidth it needs to maintain the QOS (as they call it).

I was on the lower end of the acceptable speed needed for Vonage. That said, it would have saved me at least 40/month on my business phone fax charges, since Vonage doesn't charge (yet) all of the federal, state and local taxes that appear on my phone bill. When I did have a connection, voice quality was pretty good. Try it, but don't cancel your regular phone service until you're sure that it works OK! Good Luck!
