The MagicJack service isn’t perfect, just nearly so, but it does have a few problems that may make some people not want to use the service as their primary phone service.
MagicJack requires that your computer, that has the device plugged into it, stay on for the phones to work. If that is a problem though, there is a new Magicjack device out now, that costs a few more dollars, that can be used without a computer. That device can be ordered through the website though, if that’s what you’re looking for
If your internet service is down, your phone system won’t work.
You must be using your MagicJack, at the address of record, for e911 services to work.
