My husband and I have been thinking about changing over to VoIP, and we’ve been trying to learn more about it.
What is VoIP?
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), is a technology that allows you to make telephone calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line. Some services using VoIP may only allow you to call other people using the same service, but others may allow you to call anyone who has a telephone number – including local, long distance, mobile, and international numbers. Also, while some services only work over your computer or a special VoIP phone, other services allow you to use a traditional phone through an adapter.
We’ve recently discovered the forums over at Vonage. Reading the forums has been very helpful. You can learn more about Voip products and read articles there, and you can also read the latest news about VoIP technology. The forums are owned by Vonage, who established the VoIp information site over 4 years ago, and naturally Vonage also offers VoIP to it’s customers.
Visit the Vonage forums to learn more, maybe we’ll see you there.
I have heard some disturbing things about VOIP that Vontage uses. My fears are that I will not receive or make calls from everyone. I am not sure that this correct and the costs that may be hidden also need to be more forthwith and understood.
