The problem likely has little to do with the Vonage adapter, unless in
fact it is handing out a DHCP address to the Squeezebox.

Traffic between your Laptop and Squeezebox won't pass through the
Vonage adapter at all, it's far more likely that you have a firewall
set up on either your router or your laptop which is interfering with
the communication between the Squeezebox and the Laptop.  Information
about what ports need to be opened on the firewall for Squeezebox and
Slimserver to communicate is well documented in the support section of
the Slim Devices website.

When you say things are not working, what is not working?  Does the
Squeezebox completely boot up, get an IP address, AND SAY that it is
connected to the Slimserver (running on your laptop)?  If you are not
getting this far then you need to investigate what is happening when
the Squeezebox attempts to get an IP address and contact the Slim
Server.

If you aren't sure where your Squeezebox is getting its IP address from
then you need to get into the web interface of each of your routers and
see how DHCP is set up on them.  You can also check the status to see
which of them has handed out an IP address to the Squeezebox.  The
router will either identify the Squeezebox with an understandable name,
or it will provide the MAC address (machine address) of the Squeezebox. 
The Squeezebox will either have the MAC address printed on a sticker on
the bottom of the device, or you can confirm the MAC by disconnecting
the device and seeing which MAC address disappears from the router's
DHCP table.

Please provide as much information as possible about the problem so we
can help you resolve the issue.
