A high-speed Internet connection is required for both software-based and
hardware-based web phones. The "always on" broadband connection is
needed to assure high quality voice reception.
There are many high-speed Internet technologies available today that can
be used for Web Phone service. The two
most widely used broadband technologies are cable (which uses the coaxial cable
needed for cable television) and ADSL (which uses standard telephone
lines).
Other emerging broadband technologies include:
- Satellite Internet connections
- Wireless Internet connections (point-to-point, WiFi, line-of-sight)
- Other DSL technologies (HDSL, RADSL,
SDSL, VDSL)
