VoIP – Making calls via
the Internet
With VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol),
your calls are not made via a fixed connec-
tion as in the telephone network, but
rather transmitted via the Internet in the
form of data packets.
You can take advantage of all the benefits
of VoIP with your phone:
u
You can make cost-effective calls with
high voice quality with subscribers on
the Internet, the fixed network or the
mobile phone network.
u
Your SIP provider will give you personal
numbers with which you can be
reached from the Internet, the fixed
network and any mobile phone net-
work.
To be able to use VoIP, you need the fol-
lowing:
u
A broadband Internet connection (such
as DSL) with flat rate (recommended)
or volume-based price
u
Internet access, meaning that you need
a router that will connect your phone to
the Internet. You can find a list of rec-
ommended routers on the Internet at:
u
Access to the services of a VoIP pro-
vider. Open up to four accounts with
one VoIP provider.
