I would like to know if anybody has found any good cordless VOIP phones that work with Yahoo Messenger. I did find the Linksys CIT 310 but all the reviews state that it is an old phone with no support by either Yahoo or Linksys and that it doesn’t even work with the newest versions of the messenger.

My Nokia E71 has voip hardware installed and I thought that any voip calls would be made through my cell phone’s wireless connection thereby not costing me minutes on my phones talk plan. Is there any way of getting around getting charged daytime minutes for VOIP calls?
Hi again…just spoke with my Wireless provider (Rogers in Canada) and they said that they do charge you your daytime cell minutes for VOIP calls. Man, even when it’s over a wifi connection, they’re able to sting you. Any different in the U.S.?

Dear all,

I want to start International phone calls business service through Internet VOIP service.

Is it allowed in India, if so what are the best authorized services available in Andhra Pradesh, India.

Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Best regards

Telephone conference calling is utilized on a very large scale every single day in businesses all around the globe. But did you know that they have also gotten quite popular for personal use from home?

At work, you have most likely used teleconferences for attending meetings with clients or colleagues at other company locations of your company. These types of audio meetings are usually a somewhat regular occurrence for many retail store managers.

Generally speaking, a retail store is subset of a very large chain and each store is usually part of a certain region or district that includes a number of other stores. It simply would not be very convenient for all the region store managers to gather every week at one location, and it certainly would not be very cost effective. The solution to this is for the district or regional manager to schedule weekly meetings via conference call with all of the store managers who can listen in and provide their input as needed.

Personal telephone conference calls are somewhat different because at home you can only participate with two other parties at once, but this type of call is still known as a conference call.

At home teleconference calling is a feature that you can select when you set up your telephone service. This feature is generally referred to as three-way calling, but there are a few phone services that offer actual conference features where you can talk with even more than three people at one time.

As you may guess, this feature for personal phone have become very popular among teenage girls who have a strong desire to talk on the phone with all of their friends at one time. Without this telephone conference calling feature, the teenage girl using call waiting on a home phone will most likely go back and forth between two friends and perhaps even using the call waiting on her cell phone on the other ear. No doubt that this could become very costly when you pay for those cell phone minutes.

Telephone conference calling has also become a very popular feature those who work at home or for people who telecommute. With the rising price of gasoline, there are more and more people who are telecommuting or working from home these days. These folks need a way to have meetings with their home offices or talk to clients via conference calling. This is one of the main reasons why more and more phone service providers are offering true conference calling to personal accounts as an option these days.

Have you ever wanted to find where an old friend is living is now?  Or have you ever wanted to find out whom your daughter is talking with?  Or maybe you just wanted to send a Thank You or Christmas card to a client, and all you have is their phone number?  Well, these are all reasons a reverse telephone lookup directory exists. 

My first time doing a reverse telephone search certainly was an eye opening experience.  Since the telephone number that I was searching was a wireless number I had no luck consulting White Pages or any other online public directory.  These directories are solely for the use of landline home and business numbers, which are a matter of public information.

So, after resigning myself to having no luck there I decided to try searching the phone number in the major search engines.  I typed the number in Google, MSN, and Yahoo.  All three directories came up with nothing in relation to that number.  So, the next thing I did was type “reverse cell phone lookup” in the search tool bars of these 3 search engines.  To my delight, I saw sites that offered a “free” cell phone search and figured my problem was solved.  But after going through 4 of these sites, I found out the search was “free”, but the results were not.  Feeling misled, I wasn’t about to trust the validity of their data.  So I moved on to my next step. 

I searched why I had to pay for information associated with cell phone numbers.  What I found is that these numbers are not considered public information.  This data is owned by the major wireless carriers like Verizon, Sprint, and Nextel.  You can’t access their phone directories, so the only way to retrieve this data is through one of the reputable online sites that resell this data.  Fortunately, if you are determined to get the data, the cost is about the same as a pizza and the information you’ll obtain is pretty extensive. You’ll be able to find the owner’s name, billing address, map location of the address, what cell phone carrier the owner uses, and a history of that cell phone number, including previous owners of the number, if any.  Also, many times you’ll be able to find out the owner’s age and occupation. 

This information is obtained is easily and virtually instantly.  Good online sites also offer a money back guarantee and operate customer service departments that are responsive to any questions or problems you may have. 

So, next time you find yourself in a position where you need to find out personal information about someone and all you have is a phone number to work with, you’ll know what your options are.  Doing a reverse telephone lookup with one of the few reliable and trustworthy online websites is an option increasingly more people are turning to as a great resource in searching cell phone numbers.  One of the best and most popular directories is referenced below.

I understand there is something I can plug into one phone jack and all the other jacks will become part of the network for VOIP. Anybody know what I need?
The phone adapter supplied with the VOIP service will connect only one phone.
Thanks for any help.
Broadband service is DSL.
