Facts on voip

  • The nature of IP makes it difficult to geographically locate network users. Emergency calls, therefore, can not easily be routed to a nearby call center, and are impossible on some VoIP systems. Moreover, in the event that the caller is unable to give an address, emergency services may be unable to locate them in any other way.
  • Some broadband connections may have less than desirable reliability. Where IP packets are lost or delayed at any point in the network between VoIP users, there will be a momentary drop-out of voice. This is more noticeable in highly congested networks and/or where there is long distances and/or interworking between end points.
  • There are a number of services that have sprung up to facilitate this type of "free" VoIP call. Examples are Google Talk, Skype, TheGlobe and Yahoo Messenger. Incoming phone calls can be automatically routed to your VoIP phone, irrespective of where you are connected to the network.
