VoIP – making calls via the Internet
With VoIP ( V oice o ver I nternet P rotocol), your calls are not made via a fixed con-
nection as with the telephone network, but rather they are transmitted via the
Internet in the form of data packets.
You can take advantage of all the benefits of VoIP with your phone:
u
You can make cost-effective calls in high voice quality with callers on the
Internet, the fixed line network or the mobile phone network.
u VoIP providers will give you personal numbers, with which you can be
reached from the Internet, the fixed line network and any mobile phone net-
work.
To be able to use VoIP, you need the following:
u
A broadband Internet connection (e.g. DSL) with flat rate (recommended)
or volume-based price.
u Internet access, i.e. you need a router that will connect your phone to the
Internet.
You can find a list of recommended routers on the Internet at:
www.gigaset.com/customercare
From here, go to the FAQ page and select your Gigaset IP telephone.
Search for "Router", for example.
u
Access the services of a VoIP provider. Open up to six accounts with differ-
ent VoIP providers.
Your Gigaset S685 IP has a protected operating system that offers increased security
against viruses from the Internet.
