Have you heard that you can make phone calls over the internet cheaply?
Have you had a chance to try it? Most people that have had a chance to try
it have experienced hit or miss quality, dropped calls as well as some
speech delays. But there are some steps that you can take to really
improve the quality and consistency of you VoIP calls over your internet
Connection.
There is a lot of buzz these days around Internet based communication,
VoIP, replacing regular/traditional telephone service. Much of the buzz
has been created by/around a company called Vonage, who.s motto is
.Leading the Internet Phone Revolution..
Even if you do not have a broadband connection, you can still save a
fortune by using VOIP service for long distance calls. A broadband
connection will give you more consistent, reliable call quality, but
similar results can be obtained using a dial up account if some guidelines
are followed.
All VoIP service providers are different, they do not all support dial-up
users. Companies such as Vonage happens to be one that backs away from
dial up connections. The providers that do support dial up usually only
support dial-up above certain speeds. The two most popular companies that
do support dial up VoIP are Callserve and Go2Call.
If you close programs that are running in the background, you will get
higher call quality. If you are using windows, just right click & close
all open non-essential applications that are shown in your taskbar at the
bottom right of your screen. If you are using windows XP & there are other
users logged on, be sure they log off before trying to make a call.
You also need to be conscience of what you are doing while you are on the
call. If you overload the limited data capability your call quality will
suffer. Other activities that will compete for bandwith are: Instant
Messaging, checking your email, web cameras, surfing the internet or
downloading anything.
Scan your system frequently for Viruses and Adware, these programs can tie
up your browser and internet connection, slow down your system and affect
your call quality.
Make it a habit to scan your system every month so your virus software
remains uo to date. McAfee or Nortons are good programs, Spybot . Search &
Detroy is good for removing spyware.
Use a headset with a boom microphone and this should eliminate annoying
voice echoes often associated with VoIP phone calls. If you use a headset,
voice signals are limited in volume and thus the chances of your
microphone 're-transmitting' those voice signals is greatly reduced.
So if you have dial up you can still enjoy the cost savings of making PC
to VoIP call.
