5.6 Data Connection
There are two methods for IP packet communication service:
*: If you are using streaming IP packet communication, the video and audio do not
stutter if the bandwidth is within guaranteed area. However, if you can accept broken
voice and video, you can use the standard IP communication. When selecting which
service to use, consider whether stable communication or communication fee is a pri-
ority.
Note: The cost of streaming IP packet communication may be unexpectedly high, so
please use caution.
