We have the Magic Jack that plugs into your router, not your computer. It comes with a device to plug into the router. I can't remember prices, but it's no biggie. With the device, there's no need to leave a computer on. We have had zero problems with our Magic Jack, got a 352 telephone number, and NEVER get any telemarketing calls on it.

I have heard that there are better/cheaper VOIP systems around, but we are happy with what we have so continue on with it. We've had it for almost a decade. We pay about $40/year.
