No! the device is designed to work through your computer only, it is not compatible with the rest of your phone system.

I moved. magic jack says no line when hooked back up

Is everything turned on?
Is the blue light, inside your Magic Jack dongle, on? (Note that the Magic Jack Plus should have a flashing red and green led as well.) If you use the older model you might need to connect it through a powered hub to ensure the device receives enough power to operate properly?
If this is a new installation, is your internet service and computer capable of handling the requirements placed upon them by Magic Jack?
Do all your connecting cables appear to be firmly attached?
Are you watching Netflix, downloading or streaming files at the same time you are attempting to place a call?
If you are using the Magic Jack Plus, does the system report Error 3002?

.
Next, you should ask yourself what recent changes you have made to the computer/Magic Jack software? What recent upgrades have you performed to your hardware? Could this have effected the performance of your Magic Jack?
If your difficulties persist, it is time to divide and conquer. Google a 'you tube' link and watch the video. If you cannot connect to the internet, consult your internet provider for assistance. If the video is choppy, the internet connection might be too slow or bogged down. Perhaps your computer is too slow or requires maintenance. If you cannot hear sound, you might be experiencing problems with your soundcard or sound drivers. You should check Control Panel/Sound and ensure that 'USB internet phone by Tigerjet' is installed.
If the video ran correctly, the next step would be to test your handset and phone cord at another location.
If you prove the handset/phone cord to be correct, you have pinpointed your fault to either the Magic Jack or its software. Contact online support for Magic Jack.

Magicjack phone

Have you tried a new telephone cables going to the magic jack? That would be the first place that I would start.

Can you hook up a telephone to the existing line that's plugged into the magic jack then see if the noise occurs. If yes, then replace the cable. If no, replace the magic jack module.

Find where you line comes into the house. hook the phone up there if there is still a problem its not your phone or system. Call your phone company they have a problem in their line. If the phone does work OK then you will have to start isolating your extension jacks to find which one is shorted.

Comcast Digital Voice/ADT alam system

The 2 jacks on the back of the Arris modem are labeled "1/2" & "2". The first jack labeled "1/2" means that the jack is capable supporting 2 different phone numbers, a line 1 and a line 2. The second jack labeled "2" means that it is capable of supporting only a second phone number. Therefore your 1 phone number is working correctly from the port labeled "1/2".

There are different types of phone splitters. It is possible that the one you used may have been to split lines 1 & 2 on a single jack into two seperate jacks. Take a closer look at the splitter and see if the 2 ports are labeled differently.

Hope that helps.

CAN'T GET FAX WORKING.

If it's answering on your main number, then you are not plugged into the fax jack. You should have a separate phone jack for fax. If you have internet phone there should be a second jack on the back of your phone box. You can test that you have a functioning second line by plugging the fax into it and using the fax unit to dial your home number.
