Sharing internet access is likely against the service agreement.  You might
want to check.  

 

If they don't have a line, why VoIP?  How about a cell phone?  With the
right cable, you can use the cell phone as a wireless modem.  I don't know
where Sanford is, but if they have Edge (the technology not the telco), then
access can be very quick.

 

The real problem with VoIP is that it doesn't work when the power goes out.
Neither does 911.

Subject: [Ldsoss] VOIP Service providers ... which one?

 

Scenerio:

My brother's in-laws have a trailer in sanford. I will be setting them up
with wireless internet access this week (shared from a neighbor, with
permission).

 

They do not have a phone line and need a telephone so therfore want me to
set them up with VOIP. I will need to have the VOIP adapter before I go
there (2 hr drive each way) so he wants to be what is needed when I am with
him so he does not get the wrong thing.

 

Is see that Circuit City, Best Buy, etc sell adapters with Vonage or Skype.

 

I do have a VOIP speed test utility but it can't be run until I set up the
wireless.

 

Questions:

1. Is wireless (usually) sufficent for VOIP?

2. Which VOIP provider do I NOT go with. I understand one of them Vonage or
Skype filed for bancruptcy.

3. Is there any thing else I need to be aware of?
