How do I know if a phone number in the UK is using a VOIP service to re-direct to another country?
Question by James: How do I know if a phone number in the UK is using a VOIP service to re-direct to another country?
I am trying to find out if a person that wants to place a large order with my company is legit. Is there a way of looking up a UK phone number to determine if it is a land line, cell phone, or if it is a VOIP re-direct service?

Answer by Shanavas
From the number you can obviously make out if it is a landline or a mobile number. However, if your customer is using VoIP, it will be extremely difficult to track this. Even if you get hold of someone in the telecom company, they generally can’t reveal this due to privacy laws.

Q&A: Do you have to have dry loop for VOIP?
Question by pyrophorus: Do you have to have dry loop for VOIP?
That’s basically it. If you have DSL, do you have to have a dry loop
(only internet service, no phone service) service to use VOIP. We would like to keep our land line, and use VOIP “overtop” of it.
Best answer:
Answer by imsurfing2000
Nope. VOIP will work with your normal phone service. It runs over the Internet Protocol like this page is, so it won’t interfere.

Question by K-Bankers: Will a Bluetooth headset work for VoIP applications on PC?
I’d like to know if it is possible to use a standard Bluetooth wireless headset on a Bluetooth enabled PC computer for Voice over IP applications (Voice Chat, Internet Phones, etc). And if so, what models can do this? Thanks!

Answer by Gary G
Yes, Bluetooth is just another type of “Wireless” connection. No different than directly plugging a headset into your computer!

How does VoIP connect to landline phone?
Question by gorge h: How does VoIP connect to landline phone?
I know VoIP goes over the internet, but how does it connect to a conventional home phone, or to cell phones? I meant to say: how does it connect at the other end if it goes to a conventional phone? How does it get from the internet to a landline at the answering end?
Best answer:
Answer by ddominic
With any VOIP service, you connect a small device unit that you get from the VOIP. You will connect this small device to your router by a Ethernet cable. Then on the device unit there is a small phone jack on the unit. From there you connect a regular telephone line to your a phone (home phone). You won’t use any connection from any telephone wall jacks.
So when you get a call to your VoIP phone number, your home phone will ring and you can answer using that phone.

what are the advantages of using voice, video and data conferencing over IP?
Question by rkreidler2: what are the advantages of using voice, video and data conferencing over IP?
Best answer:
Answer by caulski
Cost – easily installed, all you need is stanadrd PC equipment with a webcam/headset and an internet connection (the faster the better).
Free apart from internet connection cost.
Cheap to replace if it breaks.
Simplicity – Everyone (nearly) knows how to use a computer or at least has some experience with one and does not take long to train someone to use it/or the software/hardware you are using.
Easily expanded – You can easily rollout more VOIP quickly as the infrastructure is already in place i.e. LAN and the internet.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Answer by Kimpak_myrddin
Well I support VoIP phones where I work and I have to say most of our internet customers also have VoIP in the areas where it is available.
VoIP is eliminating the need for long distance charges and other minor fees that standard phone companies are charging. Now the drawback is for those who live in an area where the Internet signals are not the greatest, this causes their phone service to be down more often than not.
Also, a VoIP service isn’t 100% reliable as it depends on the internet to work, so if your cable or dsl service has an outage, say a fiber cable gets cut or a CMTS(for cable isp’s) goes down, than your phone goes out as well.
In the future, I see VoIP relatively unchanged except for becoming more available as well as more reliable, thus forcing standard phone companies to lower their rates as well to keep their existing customers, unfortunatly this is probably a long way down the road but we’re getting there.

Voice over IP – cellphone included or just at home? minimizing home call costs and cellphone costs?
Question by Independent_guy: Voice over IP – cellphone included or just at home? minimizing home call costs and cellphone costs?
How does it work – can I call for free (whether from home or my cellphone) using today’s technology or are we not there yet? Also, what cellphone should I buy if I do not want to commit to any cellphone company. Apparently most if not all cellphone are somehow “connected” to the service provider (as I was explained) so if you buy a cellphone you can only use it with the specific service provider. What if I want to buy a cellphone that can in the future work with any company I choose. Is this not an option? Thanks.
Best answer:
Answer by Rationality Personified
VoIP replaces your home phone line. It doesn’t include your cell phone (at least not yet).
If you want a cell phone that’s not committed to a particular cell phone company, get an “unlocked” cell phone. Even if it is unlocked, it will still only work within the bands and protocols of which it is capable. The most capable would be an unlocked quad-band GSM phone.
