Voip Tutorials
What is VOIP?
Voice Over Internet Protocol(VOIP) is a general term for a family of transmission technologies for delivery of voice communications over IP networks such as the Internet or other packet-switched networks. There are 3 different ways to make calls by using IP networks.
1)Phone to Phone:
There are two ways to make a phone to phone connection. You can use your regular phone plugged into an ATA adaptor, which in turn plugs into your broadband modem. Or you may also use an IP phone that plugs directly into your broadband connection.
2) Computer to Phone:
If you want to make a computer to phone connection, you need VOIP software, headset, earphones and microphone, but the party on the other end can use any phone which is not connected directly to the Internet. This type of call is not usually free, but the cost is quite a bit lower than what your telephone company charges. In the computer to phone connection, just the party who uses computer needs a particular VoIP software package.
3)Computer to Computer:
Computer-to-computer voice connection is the simplest form of VOIP.You need a computer with sound card, a headset consisting of earphones and microphone, and some VOIP software. There is no fee for this type of connection and you can make calls to anywhere in the world.
