How to choose a long distance calling solution by Network Enhanced Technologies

Situation Number Two

2. I am a residential customer making long distance or international calls on a regular basis and I have broadband internet.

2. In this case if you have broadband internet, you can go for even bigger savings by connecting through a VoIP Provider. VoIP is the newest technology in internet telephony and stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. The process of connecting to a VoIP most of the time involves canceling your local phone because it becomes useless for you and will just waste money if you already have a VoIP.


Typically what happens is you get a hardware called VoIP adapter which you connect to your broadband internet cable, and then you connect your phone to that hardware. Also, there are VoIP phones which you can directly connect to your broadband internet cable and you're all set. There is a connection fee with this service because your VoIP Provider gives you the hardware which costs them money.


Your VoIP Provider then designates a phone number for you which in most cases you can choose to have your area code. You simply get a full service phone (which most of the time contains even more features than your ordinary local phone company gives you), which is much cheaper to make long distance and international calls with. This is an ideal solution for residential customers or business costumers who regularly make international or long distance calls and have a broadband internet access.


Most of VoIP Providers will give you unlimited long distance (domestic) minutes included in your plan. The Prices start as low as $10-20 per month for this service whereas an ordinary land line phone will cost $40-50 per month with fewer features and with no long distance minutes included.

Situation number one

1. I am a residential customer making long distance or international calls on a regular basis and don't have broadband internet.

1. In this case you will most likely want to go with a Long Distance Plan which will simply replace your existing local company's long distance access (or connect a new long distance access if you don't yet have any) for a more cheaper and suitable calling rate.

Most local phone companies charge higher rates for long distance calls. So choosing a dedicated Long distance Service will help you save on all of your long distance and international calls.

To do so, you simply need to sign up with a Long Distance Carrier then call your local phone company and notify them that you are switching your Long Distance Carrier.

The switching process usually takes about five business days after that you may simply pick up the phone, dial 011 and follow with your long distance or international number.

There are no access numbers, no pins, nothing.... This is the most convenient way to dial if you are a residential customer or a business customer who don't have any broadband internet connection.
