The V-Portal will restart. (You don't have to do anything, except please be patient and
wait until the V-Portal completes its startup sequence. The
V-Portal is ready to make calls when you see the phone icon.
**MTU stands for Maximum Transmission Unit. This indicates the largest packet that can be
transmitted across the network. By default, the MTU Size parameter in the V-Portal is set to 0
which indicates a value of 1492 will be used. Adjusting the MTU size is helpful in rare scenarios
where some upstream device is unable to accept larger size packets and consequently it drops
packets from the V-Portal. We recommend using the default value unle s your ISP or Vonage
C ustomer Care has asked you to change it. Please check with your ISP for the MTU setting used
on their network.
