Las Vegas, NV May 11, 2005 Lasvegas.net now introduces a voice over internet protocol (VoIP) for your home or office.

VoIP is the ability to convert voice or fax calls into data packets for transmission over the Internet or other IP-based networks. Unlike traditional phone calls, where the conversation is converted into electronic signals that traverse an elaborate network of switches, in a dedicated circuit that lasts the duration of a call. VoIP works by converting the conversation into packets of data that travel over the Internet or private networks, just like e-mails or Web pages, though voice packets get priority status. The packets get reassembled and converted to sound on the other end of the call.

Voice over IP makes long distance calls cheaper by removing some of the access charges required for use of the public telephone network. A user’s physical location also becomes irrelevant; Las Vegas lets people choose their area code and possess multiple area codes in different cities that all ring to the same phone. VoIP also enables Las Vegas’s advanced features — like checking voice mail from a Web page or programming call-forwarding through a web tool.

Plans start at $14.99 for home based, and $39.99 for your business. When you purchase a plan, you get the Las Vegas ATA (Analog Telephone Adaptor) free*. The Las Vegas ATA brings traditional telephones to the networked world. It is a handset-to-Ethernet adaptor that interfaces regular analog telephones with IP-based telephony networks.

According to an article released by Yahoo News citing In-Stat on Tuesday, May 3rd, 2005 in this article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nf/20050503/tc_nf/34036, the period in which consumers and small business owners will switch to VoIP will be from 2005-2009. They also say that the migration to VoIP will have it’s highest peak somewhere from 2010-2014. Las Vegas residents can take advantage of using new technology through VoIP instead of traditional phones calls.

Now we have accepted that VoIP is no longer just a phone service, it has become feature rich as it merges with computer configurations. The VoIP’s existence has changed considerably over the last few years, coupled with the availability of broadband connection to the Internet, plus leaps in multimedia technology in which virtual operations with remote sites becomes more enhanced, makes VoIP service a viable alternative to traditional communication offerings.

Cost savings is not the only driving force for VoIP implementations, enterprises have to consider some business aspects that VoIP can bring about. VoIP creates potentials for applications that could not have been done before. Collaboration, integration, and interactivity between employees and applications are one of the several business benefits that enterprises can derive from VoIP adoption. Nevertheless, amid euphoria of VoIP technology, there are three important aspects to look at before a company goes VoIP. In the following paragraphs I will summarize the aspect of security, stability, and interoperability that play a key role in the successful implementation of VoIP.

1. Security

VoIP implementations may expose new security risks and challenges that somehow become greater concern than quality and cost-efficiency among vendors and users. VoIP networks are vulnerable to all the same security risks as traditional IP data networks, including:

• Denial of Service (DoS), viruses, worms,
• Toll fraud and unauthorized access,
• Spoofing, and port scanning.

It is recommended that organizations should adopt a layered, defense-in-depth security strategy to address the issue with the increasing proliferation of new Internet-borne attacks and malicious activities in recent years. In this architecture, the network is segmented into secure zones protected by layers of firewall, intrusion prevention, and other security services. This strategy allows the organizations to logically split and secure voice and data networks in front of individual voice and data components and between interactive points in the network.

2. Stability

One of the main issues of VoIP is the amount of bandwidth required for each call. There must be adequate bandwidth reserved and the quality of the link must be well maintained throughout each call to ensure the users are not affected. As the very nature of VoIP call is real-time, any disruption during the call would be easily noticeable and unacceptable. The two issues that enterprises usually have to deal with here are bandwidth and quality of service (QoS).

VoIP calls need a data transmission speed of 64kb/s to produce the quality of voice comparable to that of a normal telephone call. That 64kb/s channel needs to remain open and unaffected for the duration of the call. Theoretically, VoIP installations would not allow such a huge bandwidth to be allocated for VoIP alone. Therefore, there needs to be a compression taking place to compact the voice data into a considerable size before it gets transmitted over a packet switching network. G.723 codec that is incorporated in VoIP standard protocol H.232 can take a 64kb/s stream of data and squash it down to a mere 5.5kb/s or so. Generally, for VoIP to work reliably over WAN links, there has to be low jitter, low packet loss, a considerably high-speed connection between the endpoints, and less than 200ms delay.

3. Interoperability

Compatibility between VoIP equipment from different vendors is a very important aspect to boost the use of VoIP products. Without standardized quality of service mechanisms businesses would need to buy all the equipment and the QoS server from the same manufacturer. The VoIP world seems to be divided between many vendors with reluctance to establish interoperability and some who are trying to be end-to-end supplier but at the same time worried about interoperability. The protocols used in VoIP communication are still considered fairly complex in comparison to most of the other protocols involved in Internet applications. SIP (Session Initiation Protocol – a signaling protocol for Internet conferencing, telephony, events notification, and instant messaging), that is regarded as simple and elegant the other protocols, is still not efficient.

On the bright side, however, SIP is approaching status as an IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) standard, after several years of work. With the recent version, it has achieved a greater amount of stability and changes are becoming smaller and smaller. Phone switch companies such as Nortel have recently begun supporting SIP, and now the manufacturers of handsets and related devices will soon ramp up their support. Motorola, Avaya, and Proxim have made collaboration on the creation and deployment of IP telephony solutions that will deliver new extents of communication mobility and network connectivity.

With these three VoIP aspects covered, businesses will be able to maximize their investment by applying it as the backbone of internal communication such as phone conversation, videoconferencing, instant messaging, faxing, etc. Another area that will widely make use of VoIP is call centers, in which Web contacts, virtual operations with outsourcers overseas, and remote sites, such as home agents, all could improve the customer experience. New VoIP applications that we have not thought about may also come into existence as the services generates more business and profits for companies.

With internet usage reaching almost every country, and economic
class, and with its permeation throughout the western world,
applications designed to harness its potential in ever more
practical ways are constantly arising. One such application is
Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP), which continues to
challenge its own limitations. There are a few leading players
who are jostling for supremacy, including Yahoo! Messenger, MSN
Messenger, Skype, and Vonage.

Recently, there have been many converts to Skype, including
this reviewer. There are several factors that have influenced my
own personal move, but my primary motivations were innovation,
quality, and marketability. VoIP has always been an application
that is easily marketable, and Skype has added innovative
features that are quality-rich:

* SkypeOut, where you can use your computer to call ordinary
phone numbers all over the world. The global SkypeOut rate is
currently 1.7 Euro Cent (about 2 US cents or 1.1 pence) per
minute to more than 20 countries.

* SkypeIn, which is a virtual phone number your friends can
call. This is in beta testing at the time of writing this
review, but the 12-month subscription is available for ? 30 and
3 months for ? 10.

* Skype Voicemail, which lets you redirect calls to your
voicemail, is available at ? 5 for 3 months or ? 15 for the
year.

However, the most widespread application of Skype is PC-to-PC
calls. Any user can make free calls over the Internet to anyone
else who also has Skype. It is a simple wizard-based process to
download and use the application, and works via your broadband
connection with operating systems based on Microsoft Windows,
Mac, Linux, and Pocket PCs. All you need is a PC microphone and
speakers or a basic USB headset, and what you get is a
real-time, telephone-quality voice conversation with any PC
end-user in the world. I found the downloading to be extremely
simple and straightforward and imagine that anyone, no matter
your computer fluency will find it easy as well.

In addition to its ease of setup, the features of Skype are
really impressive. There is a facility to search the Skype
database, so that you are able to build a list of contacts. We
have used Skype for Windows 1.4 for a PC-to-PC conversation
between Los Angeles and Mumbai (India), and there was no
recorded break in the half-hour call. The clarity was definitely
on par with a normal telephone, perhaps even better, with no
noticeable time lag. On subsequent calls between these
destinations and other US cities including Chicago, the quality
continues to amaze us, and the fact that Skype works in most
environments, irrespective of firewalls or NAT, widens its
reach.

So, what’s the downside? A comparative analysis will help
clarify the situation. For a start, Skype does not offer as many
calling features as other service providers like Vonage. Then,
there have been question marks about the technical/customer
support offered by Skype. Another point where Skype loses out is
the quality of the SkypeOut package, where the calls made to
landlines are of inconsistent quality. One hopes that Skype can
add video chat to its repertoire in the near future, which will
place Skype on an equal standing with other free VoIP providers
like Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger, which already have
video capabilities. Skype is undoubtedly ahead of both MSN and
Yahoo in terms of voice quality and the real-time conversation
experience. On the other side of the spectrum, Vonage offers
feature-rich services and better customer service, although all
this comes at a price.

My Overall Assessment: Vonage is a better option than Skype for
traditional telephone users because Skype is totally
computer-dependent and caters to consumers who are “living out
of their computers.”

The future has a lot to offer, and undoubtedly Skype will move
forward in its evolutionary process, and hopefully improve
SkypeOut and emerge successfully out of beta testing for
SkypeIn. However, for the moment, Skype is arguably the best
option for free PC-to-PC calls. Skype says that the “current
focus is to make the best voice-application on the
planet”–judging from user feedback around the world, Skype has
already gone a long distance towards that objective.

l">Skype review.

I thought I’d outline some of the basics of VoIP. I use this
service myself and have sold VoIP services to my customers. What
I didn’t understand until last night is how much I assume. You
see my business is mostly web based so my customers read up on
VoIP and have a general understanding of the technology before
making a purchase.

What I came across in my conversations last night was that some
people attracted purely by the cost really don’t understand what
the trade off’s are, what is required and their level of
expectation is, in my humble opinion, to high. Now don’t get me
wrong, I’m a huge fan of VoIP. However, I understand what’s
involved, how to hook it up as well as the pros and cons of
using such a service. For me the cost factor did weigh in when
comparing the pros and cons to the cost savings. My level of
expectation was brought inline with what VoIP can offer me.

Here are some basic assumptions I was guilty of:

1. When using your broadband internet connection for your
computer and VoIP a router is necessary. 2. During a power loss
the phone doesn’t work unless there is a UPS system in place. 3.
ISP goes down, your phone line goes down. 4. Those phone jacks
in the house don’t work with VoIP. 5. The phone base plugs into
the VoIP converter/adapter box which then plugs into your
router. If you want multiple phones in multiple rooms, you will
need a cordless phone or cordless phone system. (Multiple
handsets) 6. E911 is not automatic. You need to check
availability 7. Fax machines may not work 8. There can be call
interference (echo). Voice quality is good, but not yet as
reliable as POTS lines.

Naked DSL or DSL without phone service is not widely available.
As such, if your broadband connection is via DSL you may not be
able to use VoIP as your primary phone service. Simply put, if
your goal is to switch to VoIP and then cancel your existing
phone service, you may loose your broadband connection as well.

During my conversation last night their assumptions were much
different than mine. Their assumptions were

1. Existing phone jacks will still work with VoIP 2. My corded
phone will still work during a power outage just like they do
now. 3. I can send/receive faxes without any issue 4. I can plug
my VoIP into any room I want 5. 911 service is automatic.
Everyone has this. 6. The quality of calls is as good if not
better than POTS lines because after all it’s coming through the
internet right? 7. I don’t need any extra equipment – it’s just
a phone.

After our discussion they were more educated in what VoIP can
and cannot provide for them. In the end they choose not to get
VoIP service and that’s OK. A bundled POTS package was more to
their liking and frankly fit them much better than VoIP would
have.

Yes, I am a fan of VoIP and yes I believe this technology is
here to stay. Having said that, I do not think VoIP is for
everyone. Some consider routers, cordless phone(s), checking 911
availability, etc. to be a hassle. They just want to use their
existing phone and achieve the ‘exact’ same results. Well, VoIP
is almost there, but still has a way to go. If the cost savings
can outweigh your own pros and cons by all means go for it. If
not, wait, watch and read up some more.

Ready to give it a go? Good for you, (hope to see you at our web
site). Not yet ready? That’s OK too. (Still hope to see you at
our web site for possible cost savings on your traditional POTS
line or cellular plan)

Ok, perhaps a shameless plug in that last part. Use our web
site, use someone else’s, use a library, do whatever is
necessary to educate yourself to make more informed purchasing
decisions. It’s better to be a little prepared than completely
disappointed especially with something you’ll use everyday such
as your phone service.

Making telephone calls over the Internet is an exciting and cost
saving technology that is taking a position to completely change
voice communications forever. VOIP, or voice over Internet
protocol, is not a brand new technology, having been around the
business world for several years. But in the last few years, it
has begun to catch on with consumers as a way to combine all
forms of their communications in their homes (voice, email,
etc.) and beat the high fees that long distance companies on
their customers. There are many VOIP phone services around now
that offer the moon and more in order to get business. It is
important to carefully weigh the options so that you don’t go to
the trouble of switching from traditional landline phone service
to VOIP only to get stuck without phone service when the
provider goes under, or to get poor quality service and features
just to save money or get “free” VOIP service.

As a subscriber to VOIP phone services, there are a multitude of
options available to you. You can opt to simply talk through a
specially equipped microphone at your home computer, kind of
like a speakerphone. You can use your traditional home telephone
with the service, as long as you purchase a telephony adapter
that will convert the analog audio into digital data packets.
You can also choose to buy an IP phone that is ready to plug
into your computer and use right away. You can even go wireless.
Don’t be intimidated if you think that there is a lot of strange
equipment to set up or that you will be uncomfortable talking on
some “new” kind of phone. VOIP phone service is really no
different than the phone service that you are used to, it’s just
the wiring is different.

The low subscription price is first and foremost what is drawing
consumers to VOIP phone services. Depending on the provider you
choose, monthly charges range from $19.95 – $34.99 per month.
This usually includes free domestic calls (including Canada) and
very low International rates (often .03 – .04 per minute). And
features that you might be accustomed to paying extra monthly
fees for, such as Caller ID, Call Waiting, and Three-way Calling
are often bundled in with the standard services and standard
monthly charge. And don’t worry about calling people outside of
the service. Most providers have the capabilities to let you do
that. And, calling people within your service is often free of
charge. There really seems like there is no reason not to switch
to VOIP phone services, right?

There are some issues to think about before making the switch to
VOIP phone service. You need to consider the provider you
choose. Some services offer “free” VOIP service. This is often a
gimmick, and what you are not paying for in phone service is
apparent in the poor quality reception and limited calling
capabilities that you will have to deal with. Some newer
providers are often not established enough to handle high
volumes of traffic, and often go under, leaving customers in the
dark without any phone service at all. It is smart to choose a
well-established provider with a good reputation for quality and
customer service, in addition to competitive rates and features.
Also, it might be a good idea to consider switching only one
phone in your home to VOIP. That way, if your provider does go
out of business, you have a backup phone line to communicate
with.

Don’t be too concerned about losing your phone service or
getting swindled by a fly-by-night VOIP phone service provider.
There are several reputable providers on the market, and a
testament to that is the continuing growth of the technology. In
addition to the money you will save by subscribing to VOIP
service, you will have the freedom of being able to travel with
your phone and phone number and make calls anywhere you go. If
you have access to a broadband Internet connection, you can make
and receive calls by simply plugging in. This is ideal if you
travel a lot for business. Besides the obvious money savings
involved with VOIP phone service, it is a convenient technology
that gives you a lot of options and freedom that traditional
telephone services just can’t provide.

Wireless VoIP

Wireless and VoIP have joined forces. Installing a WLAN network
card into your computer uses wireless technology. After
installing the card, your computer will become “wireless”. This
means that you will be able to enjoy an Internet connection
without the use of cables and cords.

VoIP is the technology that allows the transmission of audio
files by transmitting them into data packets across the
Internet. By integrating Wireless and VoIP a new generation of
audio telecommunications has been birthed. By having a VoIP
service and a wireless connection, you can enjoy the best of
both worlds- wireless VoIP connections.

Visit http://www.infonet.us for more articles on voip

Wireless networks are activated by what is known as a “hotspot”.
A hotspot is an area where there is an access point. Wireless
connections are basically created by radio signals. An access
point is where the network has established their main signal. It
is possible for wireless users to basically “jump” from hotspot
to hotspot and utilize various networks access points.

The combination of Wireless and VoIP has led to another
invention-VoWiFi. VoWiFi stands for Voice over Wireless
Fidelity. VoWiFi has also produced the new VoWiFi phones. These
phones operate like cell phones, only they use VoIP technology,
(transmit over the Internet) and are wireless, operating in
various hotspots.

VoWiFi phones are very inexpensive to use, as is all of VoIP
technology. It is much cheaper to submit audio as data packets
over the Internet and it uses considerably less bandwidth. This
is a reason why VoIP technology is gaining in strength and
momentum.

Many people are choosing the freedom that is offered by VoIP.
VoIP can offer nearly free or free long distance phone calls.
Since VoWi Fi operates from hotspot to hotspot or
network-to-network, you may think that there are roaming charges
involved. Well, this is not the cellular network that you
love/hate. There are no roaming charges involved with VoIP.
That’s right, you can take your VoWiFi phone from hotspot to
hotspot, maintaining your connection (provided you easily go
from hotspot to hotspot) absolutely free.

You may be wondering why not just use cellular? Why go wireless?
Well, for those who travel a lot or are consistently out of
their cellular range, roaming charges will apply and can be
expensive. By using your VoWiFi in hotspots while you are
traveling, you can pick up a connection and make your calls for
free.

Be careful not to confuse a VoWiFi phone with a cordless VoIP
phone. They are two distinctively different products. A VoWiFi
phone will enable you to access hotspots, but a cordless VoIP
phone is simply a way to have a cordless phone in your house
that is compatible with your VoIP service provider.

VoWiFi phones are hitting the market and companies such as
Vonage are soon to debut their new VoWiFi phones.

An interesting trend is the creation of the hybrid phone. If
someone is a traveling salesman, or just simply travels
frequently and is on their cell phone, then leave their network
range- they can take advantage of the new hybrid phone. The
hybrid phone, which is part cellular, part VoWiFi, will be able
to access hotspots, and pick up a signal. Voila- no more roaming
charges!

Wireless VoIP does show promising signs towards the future and
many look anxiously awaiting new products and increasing
performance by these products. You will have to have a VoIP
service provider before you can access VoWiFi. However, you can
still find many free hotspots that will give your phone a
connection.

Both Wireless and VoIP are relatively new technologies that have
a lot of kinks that need to be worked out. The products are
hitting the market at increasing speed, while rules,
regulations, and security issues seem to be taking second place.
That is the nature of telecommunications technology though, and
we can expect that the face of Wireless VoIP will look very
different in the next few years. Major corporations are already
embracing this technology, creating services, phones, hybrid
phones and plans that center on VoIP while the FCC races to
determine where in fact VoIP technology’s classifications lay.

There have been significant issues regarding wireless VoIP and
security and 911 services. Well the good news is, that while
these issues are battled out, agreed upon, and rewritten, we can
still take our phones and lily pad our way from hotspot to
hotspot- free of roaming charges.

VOIP stands for “Voice over Internet Protocol” and it’s going to
change the way you think about making long distance phone calls.
This technology turns analog audio signals (like the sounds you
hear when talking on your regular telephone) into a digital
signal (which is then transmitted over the Internet.)

So why is VOIP a threat to communications industry? Because it
means that by getting your hands on some of the free software
that’s readily available, you can totally bypass your telephone
company, and start making long distance phone calls for free!

This revolutionary technology has the ability to totally change
the phone system of the entire world! Maybe you’ve seen
television commercials for one of the pioneers of VOIP – Vonage.
It brands itself as the “broadband telephone company”, and
offers enticing perks to customers who switch to its service,
like low-cost 800 numbers, very cheap international rates (fees
are waived from the U.S. to Canada, and how about .03 cents a
minute to call Paris?)

But Vonage isn’t the only company who is interested. AT&T is
setting up VOIP calling in several areas of the U.S. and there
are other major players on the scene as well, such as Skype, who
is relying on viral advertising to get the word out.

One of the really interesting thing about VOIP is that there’s
not just one way to make a call. There are three:

1) ATA (analog telephone adaptor) – is the most commonly used
VOIP method right now. Using the ATA, you connect your regular
telephone to your computer or Internet connection. The ATA is an
analog-to-digital converter and it takes the analog signal from
your phone and converts it into digital data and transmits it
over the Internet.

This is how Vonage does it, and AT&T ’s CallVantage will be
doing it. The ATA is free with their services. And using an ATA
is so simple that anyone can do it. Open the box, plug the cable
from your phone into the ATA instead of the wall socket, and
you’re set. Depending on your computer, and where you live, and
what type of Internet connection you have, you might have to
also install the software onto your computer, but even my
grandmother knows how to do that these days.

2) IP Phones – They look just like the phones we are used to.
They have a handset, cradles and buttons. But IP phones use an
RJ-45 Ethernet connector instead of the standard RJ-11 phone
connectors. They connect directly to your router and all the
hardware and software is already built inside to handle your IP
calls. Look for Wi-Fi IP phones to be available in the near
future, which will allow you to make VOIP calls from any Wi-Fi
spot. (Can you see the power of that? Just take your IP phone
with you when you travel, and stop in at any Internet caf?,
hotel or other location where you can use your Wi-Fi laptop, and
you can “phone home” wherever home happens to be!

3) Computer-to-Computer. Arguably the easiest way to use VOIP.
Not only do you not have to pay for long distance calls, there
are several companies that are offering free or low-cost
software right now for you to make use of the VOIP technology.
All you need is the software, a microphone, speakers a sound
card and a broadband or cable DSL Internet connection, and your
loved ones sound as if they’re in the next room. And, except for
your normal monthly ISP fee, there is no charge for any
computer- to-computer call.

Most likely, you have been using the VOIP technology without
even being aware of it, any time you’ve made a long distance
telephone call recently. Many of the major phone companies are
already using VOIP technology to reduce their own bandwidth.
It’s a simple matter of routing thousands of phone calls through
a circuit switch and into an IP gateway. Once received on the
other side of the gateway, the calls are decompressed,
reassembled and routed back to a local circuit switch.

IP telephony is the wave of the future. It makes sense in terms
of ROI, from both an economic and infrastructure point of view.
It may take some time, but eventually all of the current
circuit-switched networks that are in use today will be replaced
by packet-switching technology. More and more businesses are
already installing VOIP systems. And as the technology makes our
way into our everyday language our lives, and our homes, it will
continue to grow in popularity.

Forrester Research predicted that nearly 5 million U.S.
households will have VOIP phone service by the end of this year.
The two biggest advantages for home users so far are price and
flexibility.

Currently, most VOIP phone companies offer plans similar to that
of cell-phone companies – what are commonly called “minute-rate”
plans for as little as $30 a month. And as with cell-phone
plans, you can also get unlimited plans for around $79 a month.
With the elimination of long-distances charges, unregulated
charges, and all the freebies that come standard with your VOIP
service, it can actually amount to a significant savings for
you. For example, you may be paying extra for features like:
call waiting, 3 way calling, call forwarding, caller I.D.,
repeat dial & last call return

With VOIP, they come standard. And then there are some advanced
features that make VOIP something worth looking into. With some
carriers, you can set up call-filtering options, and actually
have some control over how calls from certain numbers are
handled. For example, you can: forward the call to a particular
number, send the call directly to voicemail, give the caller a
busy signal, play a “not in service” message and send the caller
to a funny rejection hotline

With most VOIP services, you can also check your voice mail on
the Internet, or attach messages to an email that is sent
directly to your computer or handheld. (By the way, if you’re
interested in any of these features, not all VOIP companies are
created equal, so do a little shopping around first, because
prices and services do vary).

The second benefit that makes VOIP so attractive for home and
small business users is the flexibility. With VOIP you can make
a call anywhere you can get broadband connectivity. Since the IP
phones or ATAs broadcast information over the Internet, they can
be administered by any provider. For business travelers, this
means they can take their phone or ATA with them on the road,
and never miss a home phone call!

By using a softphone, (which is client software that loads your
VOIP service onto your desktop or laptop), you can make calls
from your laptop anywhere in the broadband-connected world, with
just a headset and microphone.

We could easily see here that tremendous opportunities also
abound for the industry participants. It just depends on how you
see VOIP a threat or an opportunity.
