FAQ About VoIP
1. Can You Provide Me With a Brief Explanation of VoIP?
VoIP allows you to make telephone calls over an existing Internet connection. VoIP converts a voice signal (analog) from your telephone into a digital signal that then travels over the Internet to the desired location. It then converts the digital signal back to analog so the person on the other end can hear what you are saying.
2. How Do I Make a VoIP Phöne Call?
The first step of making a VoIP phöne call is to subscribe to a service. Once you sign up for service, the VoIP service provider will then send you a broadband phöne adapter, which plugs directly into your internet connection. You will then have to plug your existing telephone into the phöne adapter. Lastly, all you have to do is pick up the telephone and dial the number.
3. What Kind Of Equipment Do I Need to Use VoIP?
You need three things in order to use VoIP:
(a) A high-speed Internet connection (either cable or DSL);
(b) A broadband phöne adapter (provided by the VoIP service provider); and
(c) Any standard (analog or digital) telephone.
Is there a difference when placing a local or long dïstance call when using VoIP? Not really. VoIP phöne calls are made just the same way as traditional calls are made. When dialing local calls, all you have to do is dial 7 digits (555-1212) and when dialing long dïstance, all you have to do is dial 11 digits (1-408-555-1212).
4. Can I Call Anyone Using VoIP?
Yes. You can call anyone, anywhere as long as they have a valid telephone number. It can be a local call, long dïstance call, international call, cellphone, toll frëe, 911 (assuming they have E911 capability) and 411 directory assistance. Most VoIP providers will not allow calls to 900 or 976 telephone numbers, nor will they accept collect calls.
