How can I prevent my Voip phone to be bugged?
Q. If my Voip phone is bugged how can I destroy the bug and prevent it of happening again?
Asked by robb10036 - Tue Aug 8 02:24:06 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Not likely it is bugged. The phone it's self you can look at and see if it has a bug (roaches??) on it, under it or in it. The service is pretty much "bug proof" unless you are on a wireless router. If so, then ANYONE with the equipment and the motivation, can LEGALLY listen in. They can not, however, repeat any portion of the conversation. There are laws regarding listening to cordless conversations and what you can do with the information, but the "air ways" are still free. There are also encryption methods that can be used to get better security on Voip services.

How are Skype out and other VOIP calls routed?
Q. How does the call get from the public Internet onto the telephone network? Does Skype (and the other VOIP operators) own equipment in each country to provide the interface? Where is it situated, in each telephone exchange, or centrally? Mali, the question concerned calls that go from the internet to land phones.
Asked by sotires - Sat Jan 5 18:57:57 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I believe your assumption is correct. That seems to be the only real way to get onto the PSTN network. There probably has to be an Internet VoIP to PSTN gateway box situated at each local area exchange (or they rent one from the local exchange, the same as they rent the DID phone numbers and then re-market the numbers to users). This is probably why SkypeIN is not available in all countries or all area codes. I live in Canada and we cannot get SkypeIN number in Canada yet (I've asked them numerous times in past years). I have had one in USA though.

What voip providers allow you to keep your existing phone number?
Q. I really wanted to use magicJack because it seems easy enough and I've heard so much about it, but it's been over 1 to 2 years since they promised to offer the ability to keep your phone number...and they still haven't. Anyone have any recommendations for a voip that is easy to install, has great call quality, no problems with emergency calls (911 can locate you immediately), etc.?
Asked by blueberry - Sun Sep 7 19:09:51 2008 - - 2 Answers - 2 Comments
A. I have the MJ, but so far you can not port your number and I wont be anytime soon! Almost all other VoIP providers will port your number! I use Packet8 for many years now and really like it! and yes I called E911 several times already! My town is wired for E911. Many of my neighbors work from home and have VoIP and the MJ...I really can not tell you who is the best, because with VoIP...it either works or not...nothing in between...! its the law now that cell and VoIP provider have to port your number!

How to Configure Linksys WAG54GP2 Voip to block calls to mobile phone?
Q. Had enough of telling people not to call to mobile phone from the line, is there a setting to block calls to mobile phone using Linksys WAG54GP2 Voip setting?
Asked by Fair and Balanced - Thu Oct 8 02:24:23 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I dont think you could block a VOIP call in a Generic Router like the one mentioned. You may be able to do it with a VOIP only router or Phone. Im not sure. With digital systems anything is possible. Either you do it on the phone or you may be provided access to VOIP Service provider User Admin page where you could block a specific number. Im trying to figure out how the router or provider will figure out if the call is from a mobile or a land line!! Call your VOIP provider and ask if they can block a certain type of call.
