VOIP Friday, Sep 26 2008 

This article contains the excellent information about the Voice Over IP Protocol.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is the wave of the future in terms of telephone communication via the Internet. VoIP has several advantages over circuit-switched technology used by local phone companies. Circuit-switched technology uses a ‘permanent’ connection between the caller and callee, which requires a huge amount of bandwidth for each call.

This type of technology can only carry certain types of calls, such as telephone to telephone. Also, the hardware circuit-switched networks need to run effectively are extremely expensive, mostly because voice and data services must be supported on different wires. Therefore, each service needs separate hardware to accommodate the voice and data types of traffic. Needless to say, your local phone company then passes the costs of building and maintaining a circuit-switched network to the you, the consumer. Unforturnately, this equals higher rates for your telephone services.

VoIP - How Does it Work?

VoIP technology is when phone calls travel networks using Internet Protocol (IP). What this means is that the calls are passed through the Internet or privately managed data networks that are using IP to send the calls from one location to the other. So whether the call is passed through the Internet or data networks, the voice stream is broken down into packets, compressed, and sent toward their final destination by several different routes.

This is where circuit-switch technology and IP technology differ, in that circuit-switched technology uses a ‘permanent’ connection for the entire phone call. Once the call reaches the callee, the voice stream packets are reassembled, decompressed, and switched back into a voice stream by several hardware and software elements, depending on the call’s final destination. The type of software and hardware needed to start and end a phone call is determined by where the call originated, such as a PC, phone, or an Integrated Access Device (IAD) and whether the call is going to be completed on a PC, telephone, or IAD.

ADVANTAGES OF VoIP

The following is a list of the numerous advantages for using VoIP:

Voice and data can be sent over the same lines.

8 time the number of phone calls can be placed on those lines than in the circuit-switched environment.

Quality of sound is excellent.

Lower operating costs due to reduced hardware requirements and a more efficient network infrastructure.

Lower cost structures enable lower rates than the traditional telephone companies.

Use of different devices to talk to one another.

New Craze Or Just Plain Crazy Tuesday, Sep 2 2008 

The talk in the marketplace these days is how VOIP is going to revolutionise the telecommunications market. According to doomsdayers Telstra, Telco Blue and AAPT are going to be a thing of the past and VOIP will reign supreme.

Fact or fiction?

In recent times, VOIP has been the subject on many peoples’ lips. “The next big thing”! “A new way to make calls” are some of the ways VOIP has been described.

But how many people actually know what VOIP is and how they can use it?

VOIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol or for the layman it means talking over the Internet. This technology uses the Internet network to carry the telephone call. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it? Also it is remarkably cheaper than picking up the phone.

However, VOIP has its own range of issues that makes it difficult to implement. Firstly, you must have a computer. With the advent of the Internet this is becoming more and more common in every household, so may not be much of an issue.

Also you must be connected to the Internet. If you already have a computer this is not much of an issue either. The person you are calling must also have a computer and an Internet connection. This may be a bit of an inconvenience but not impossible.

For me the biggest issue facing VOIP is the quality of the call. You can drop out, the sound is inferior, you can get interference and delays and the quality varies based on the standard of technology you have.

The way a telephone call is carried over the current infrastructure is reliable, relatively cheap, always good quality, very convenient and not dead yet! This generates over $190 billion in revenue each year in Australia alone

Call me crazy but VOIP is not a CRAZE yet!

BT vs. Phorm Gradually Progresses Monday, Aug 18 2008 

There is an update in Clickz on the never ending delays in the BT vs. Phorm trials. It is obvious that past statements of the trial due to start “imminently” or within the next few weeks have yielded nothing. Things are still at a standstill, with weeks turning into months, resulting in a mounting pressure from groups that are opposed to Phorm technology. Phorm is an advertising system, considered by most to be highly controversial. Working with broadband providers, Phorm will anonymously scrutinize the websites one visits, and then use this as a development and targeting tool for advertising campaigns.

Adam Liversage, Chief Press Officer for BT, states that they have not discarded the trial. He says that plans are still underway to have the technology tried, but proceedings have not yet started. Once some things get ironed out, the trial will begin, and that should happen sometime soon. Allegations have been made that BT is delaying the proceedings as they try a new methodology that will allow consumers to opt out. Liversage denies this allegation, stating that they are indeed working through some issues, but that a cookie/non-cookie methodology would never resolve this issue. The reasons being that since cookies are created by your browser; if a user normally switches between browsers (which is quite common), then such a system cannot possibly prove efficient.

The UK government has recently been mandated by the European Commission to respond to questions on the legality of Phorm. It now seems probable that it will be realistic for BT to wait for the government’s response before they commence any proceedings against Phorm.
