Have Outgoing Call But No Incoming Call

I have installed the magic jack plus. I can call but couldn't receive call. My telephone provider, Frontier assured me that I can use my previous phone # but I got a message from you that you can't port my phone number to magic jack. Please let me know what I should do next. I already paid the dues. Thanks

Sorry for your problems.

Your magicJack may not work properly, or at all [partial list]:

  • if your magicJack is not running,
  • if it's not properly secured,
  • if the phone cord is not secured or is broken,
  • if you're not connected to the Internet at a sufficiently high speed,
  • if without a powered USB hub several phones are used to generate power from a USB port,
  • or if your magicJack device is defective.

You may wish to try these instructions. You can also reset the device, as explained here. Or consider "Running MagicJack as System" as outlined here.

If however the device is defective, you need to return it. If you bought it from magicJack, follow the instructions at http://my.magicjack.com/returns.html.
