My question is this: How do huge voip companies like vonage handle bandwidth. I'm pretty sure that they have to have sufficient bandwidth available for X numbers of simultaneous calls, in other words ALL VOIP traffic runs through their servers, right? My boss is of the mind that there is no way that this is a viable business model and his insistence has me doubting myself.<snip>


Also, it's not true that all the traffic need to flow through there servers. Once the connections are setup in a well designed system, the data could flow directly.

I'm not sure what you mean here. What connections? If they're terminating to the PSTN Either they're paying someone to do it or they're doing it themselves right? If they're doing it themselves they have to handle the bandwidth requirements. As I said before - if both endpoints are on vonage the data might go from device to device
