In order to use the device you will need to call Vonage CS (tier 2) and
tell them that the device was given to you by a friend and you want it
transfered to your account. You may need to give any or all of following
information: The MAC address, your friends name (or the name on the
account that the device was registered to), the phone number of your
friends account. They should create a support ticket and they will give
you a support ticket number. Write the number down in case there is a
problem. The device should work on your account within a few hours.
