Set up a VOIP and save Money

November 20th, 2008

Now Communication is getting swifter but costs seemed to reached a saturation point and don’t seem to get lower for a long time now. I have seen my friends here burning money on ISD calls and Calling Cards when they could get an eqully good service at cheaper rates. Of course ISD is the most quickest one at our disposal, but rarely comes such immidiate needs.

The simplest one that you could get are the SKYPE mobiles. Most of the networks around the world support 3G which means good transfer rates - bettter voice clarity. Then go ahead and install the skype in your mobile. Every 3G supported mobile will support the java based skype application. The only cost will be the internet usage charges. If 3G is not yet at your country or if it is way to expensive there are other ways. There are service providers like Vonage and Lingo which are the leaders in Home Based solutions for VOIP in Australia the providers  are

Pacnet
Voip Choice
IINet
MyNetFone
Primus

They also come as a replacement to Fixed Line home phone. If you are making only local calls then it might not be of much use if not then they save a huge amount of money. And you wont have to pay multiple bills for you phone and Internet. The set-up is real easy takes just a few minutes. The set up can vary depending on the service you want and you can do several hacks and tweaks with a PC connected. I’ll explain about that in my later blogs.
