VoIP

Have you heard of VoIP? No? You're not alone! Some of the team at Yalla Oman had heard of it, but didn't really know what it was. VoIP is an acronym for Voice over Internet Protocol. "Well and good you may say, but what is it?"

VoIP uses the internet for making and receiving telephone calls. You may ask, "What's the big deal? I've been using Net2phone or Go2Call for years to make PC to phone calls from my computer."

What's different about VoIP is that it uses the power and flexibility of an internet broadband connection, like Omantel's PowerNet. Probably an example is the best way to explain just what's special about VoIP.

Imagine that your friends and family in the UK could dial a local UK number (and pay only local calling rates) but that your phone here in Muscat rang when they called. You answer the call and talk to them as long as you like, because the call costs you virtually nothing? Or you could call them from your own VoIP phone and pay only about 1p a minute. Starting to get the idea why VoIP is such a hot new technology? But wait - it gets better! The real benefit of VoIP kicks in when you call a VoIP phone from another VoIP phone. No matter where in the world each of the phones are located, because each of the phones is using the Internet for the connection instead of telephone company circuits, the call costs almost nothing. Yes, VoIP is a hot new technology!

All that's required from this end is an Omantel PowerNet subscription and a small piece of hardware that connects between your ADSL modem and any type of normal telephone - even a cordless phone. If you subscribe with iConnectHere, they will send you the hardware free of charge.
