Summary:

If you're not living under a rock in Antarctica, you're likely familiar with VoIP, short for Voice over Internet Protocol?"also known as broadband telephone. But should you use it? How does it function, and what are its pros and cons?To understand VoIP, we need to explore its workings. It operates over a broadband internet connection, such as high-speed cable or DSL, and requires a Digital Terminal Adapter (DTA). Almost any standard home phone can be used.
Many long-distance calls already travel over the internet?"even traditional ones. The DTA sends and receives calls over the internet, bypassing traditional phone companies and many associated taxes and surcharges.
The main advantage of VoIP is cost savings. Plans range from $9 to $30 monthly, with many offering flat-rate calling for under $20. For more details, visit [cheapest-service.com/broadband-phone](http://www.cheapest-service.com/broadband-phone).
However, as with any new technology, there are challenges. Not all VoIP services provide 911 access in every area. The FCC mandated that VoIP providers offer 911 service to all users by November 2005.
A DTA typically connects to one phone. To extend VoIP service throughout your home, connect the DTA line to the external telephone network interface box. You must disconnect the traditional phone line first. Be careful, as reconnecting to the phone company line without caution could damage your DTA. Consider placing a warning sign.
This setup will distribute VoIP signals throughout your home. However, note that if your internet or power goes out, so does your broadband phone. A prepaid cell phone is a good backup if you don't already have mobile service.
Overall, my experience suggests that VoIP is cost-effective. Understanding its quirks and fixes can lead to significant savings. Even if you don't fully replace your traditional phone service, VoIP is a solid option for a second line or long-distance plan.
Switching to VoIP might justify upgrading from dial-up to high-speed internet, as savings from phone service could offset broadband costs. The decision is yours.
