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 they are transmitted via the Inter-

net 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 VoIP provider will give you a per-

sonal number, 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

(e.g. DSL) with flat rate or volume-

based price.

u

Internet access, i.e. you need a router

that will connect your phone to the

Internet. You can find a list of recom-

mended routers on the Internet at:

u

Access to the services of a VoIP pro-

vider. Open an account with a VoIP pro-

vider.
