News Alert! Category: News

Lots of Powerline News in April.

Powerline has truly been in the news this April.

--------------------- VOIP and POWERLINE: ---------------------

Have you used your Powerline with VOIP yet? V.O.I.P. Voice Over Internet Protocol With the convenience of high speed Internet, it is now possible to run your phones through the Internet.

We have been experimenting with one VOIP company: http://championcommunications.net/cromer

We purchased three (3) VOIP LinkSys boxes. Each box has an ethernet input, and two phone outputs. Each box can have two individual phone lines. Using our network, we hooked up the phones this way: 1. Our Internet cable connection to the modem. 2. The modem to the LinkSys adapter. 3. The phone plugs in to the adapter and dialtone!

Here is the advice we want to share. We ran the phones into the building network. Powerline modules work just fine as long as there is an ethernet input on the system.

We sent the modem signal throughout the building. We plugged in three boxes, however, only one phone line would work.

IMPORTANT: When using more than one VOIP phoneline you will have to add a router (not a switch) to your network AFTER the modem. This will allow for the single IP address to be assigned sub-addresses.

Each VOIP box needs a distinct IP address to work.

Now they all worked! VOIP works great on a network.

Our phone bill is cut by nearly two-thirds with all calls in the U.S. and Canada now free. International calls are also easily done and one added bonus, we can take our VOIP box with us anywhere, hook up to the internet and make free calls!

Use Powerline to spread the signal and broaden your broadband usage.
