Hello all - new to VOIP so bear with ;-)
Problem - costs involved communicating back home when away
Solution - VOIP
Here's the big question, current hardware is:
Toshiba laptop with Toshiba IP phone software Cisco SOHO 97 ADSL router (fixed WAN IP address)
Can I connect a Cisco IP phone to the router back home and place VOIP calls from the laptop (via cybercafe etc).
Do I need any other hardware?
Do I need a VOIP service provider, or can I call straight into the fixed IP address?
Thanks in advance!
Chris
