Telephone Line Required For VoIP

If you are using an Exetel “Naked” ADSL2 service then no ‘telephone’ line is required to use VoIP.

If you use the Exetel ADSL2 service the telephone line required for ADSL2 is included in the ADSL2 monthly access charge

Exetel VOIP Via Current Handset Implementation (Combined ADSL2 Modem And ATA)

To use a VoIP service you will need either a stand alone ATA or an ADSL modem with an ATA capability built in to it. If you are thinking of buying a new ADSL2 capable modem and/or a new ATA, SeeknBuy is currently offering the Dynalink RTA1046VW at a very attractive price - click here for details.

The advantages of the Dynalink RTA1046VW (or any other manufacturer's similarly specified product) is that it provides all the required functions in one 'box' with only one power outlet required and reduces cabling to the minimum. Its major plus is that it allows you to use your current telephone handset (and current telephone number) to receive calls while you use the same handset to make calls using VoIP. In the event that the VoIP service/ADSL service becomes unavailable for any reason you continue to use your current handset to make calls via the standard telephone service without the need to plug/unplug anything.

Exetel VOIP Via Current Handset Implementation (Using Current Modem And New ATA)

To allow you to use your current PSTN handset to make and receive standard PSTN calls you will need a dual port adaptor that plugs in to your ADSL modem to access your VoIP service as well as remaining connected to your standard telephone service.

The current cost of the Netcomm V210P single port ATA sourced through SeeknBuy can be seen by clicking here.

Specifications of the V210P may be found by clicking here

Exetel VOIP Via 'Soft Phone' Implementation

If you would prefer to use your PC's sound card and a head set to make and receive VOIP calls you will need ´soft phone´ software from the provider of your choice.

Exetel recommends that the softphone software you select uses the G.729 codec. You may select free software that uses G.711 but be advised that you can only make outgoing calls. Incoming calls cannot be received.

Exetel VOIP Service Features

The following features are supported by the Exetel VoIP service but whether or not they are usable by a customer will depend on the capabilities of the softphone or hardware selected by the customer.

Feature Description
Call Hold Put call on Hold
Call Waiting Allow/Disallow an audible indicator for a pending call
Call Transfer Transfer a call to another phone
Call Transfer w/Conference Transfer a call to another phone, talk with the 3rd party prior to the transfer
