ViaCall - How it works

You will not notice the difference between our VoIP digital phone service and traditional telephone service (PSTN). The digital phone works in exactly the same manner.

The technology behind it, however, is far more advanced. If you have a high-speed Internet connection, ViaNetTV phone service allows you to make local and long distance calls via internet at great savings. Here's how it works:

  • You make a call using your phone just as you do with a traditional telephone line.
  • Your voice travels through a regular telephone line to the ViaNetTV Broadband Phone Adapter.
  • The sound is digitized by ViaNetTV Broadband Phone Adapter and sent via a hub or router to your cable/ADSL modem.
  • The digitized call is then sent across the internet directly to the phone of the party you are calling.
  • Incoming calls from traditional telephone line or from other ViaNetTV users will come in through the cable/ADSL modem and then through your ViaNetTV Broadband Phone Adapter into your phone.
  • The service does not interfere with your computer. Our ViaNetTV Broadband Phone Adapter just acts like another computer requiring Internet connection.
  • Your Internet connection should work as it did before you installed the ViaNetTV Broadband Phone Adapter - sending emails and other data to and from your personal computer.

To learn how you can connect all your appliances please choose you Internet connection type: via phone line (ADSL), via TV cable.
