Broadband Phone Service
Make and receive phone calls over your broadband connection!
Sometimes called Internet phones, broadband phones use the Internet instead of regular phone networks to transmit phone calls. VoIP technology (Voice over Internet Protocol) converts your voice into digital packets that are sent over the ‘Net and converted back into analog signals before they reach the receiver on the other end.
The beauty of these broadband phone services from the user’s point of view is that they work just like a regular phone once they’re set up. The phone rings, and you pick it up. Or call someone, just as you usually would. (Note that I’m talking about hardware broadband phones here rather than software broadband phone services that need to operate through a computer.) And like other phone services, you can get broadband phone services bundled with all kinds of other phone services, such as caller ID, call waiting and voicemail.
