I take it this unit I have is no longer supported and no longer of any use? I bought it a long time ago off Woot (back when Woot was Woot and not Amazon) and never used it or even set it up. I take it that I should just recycle it and maybe keep the power adapter for future use? ???

It will work fine as an ATA to connect to any SIP provider (Callcentric, Voip.ms, etc).
But it will no longer connect to Google Voice.

Thank you for the reply. That is what I thought. I am looking for something that is free of a monthly charge to replace my MagicJack that is set to expire in Feb unless I renew it. I live in Colombia now but want to keep a USA number. I do have GV on my phone which works for me as long as I tie it to my MagicJack number.

Please explain. Is your MJ number your forwarding number in Google Voice?

I assume you have decent WiFi? Do you use a VPN?
What happens if you go into settings in your GV app on your phone and change Make and receive calls to "Prefer Wi-Fi and mobile data?" Are you able to make and receive calls now apart from your MJ?

Thanks again for getting back to me. Yes, the MJ number is just used for call forwarding. It made me put in a US number when I setup GV. I have it set to use: "Prefer Wifi and moblie data" in the GV app. My fear is when my MJ number goes away in Feb if I ever have to set it up again (new phone, custom ROM etc) I will not be able to set it up again without a working US number to get the text verification from.
