Sponsered Ads
Worldlink, ISP from Nepal has launched a new voice-over-internet (VOIP) service called D2D, charging Rs 500 per month excluding VOIP Adapter which you need to run this service. A subscriber requires two VOIP devices (provided by WorldLink), and an account to use the Device-to-Device VOIP service. Each device costs Rs 4,500, while those without a router cost Rs 4,000.For Rs 500 per month you can call the other end. The talk-time is unlimited. The service works on a broadband of a minimum 64 kbps. Another ISP, WebSurfer, has also launched VOIP services. The service can be availed at Rs 4,000 for the VOIP device and a call to US would cost around Rs 2 per minute. I do not know how Nepal ISP block or allow SIP, however if they are asking you to buy two VOIP Adapters for 4000Rs and then connect them at both end and also pay Rs. 500 per month, they are cheating on you. This is pure SIP. you can get any SIP Adapter/VOIP adapter such as Linksys PAP2 from amazon for only $53 Buy 2 of these and connect one at your place and one at the other party where you want to call. Now you can make unlimited calls to each other and no need to pay Rs. 500 to worldlink

MTNL Launches JAADU : India's first 3G service in Delhi
Sponsered Ads
Hi,
The newly launched India's first 3G service in Delhi is - MTNL Jaadu.
MTNL has launched its 3G service in Delhi and has named it Jaadu. With the launch it has become the first telecom operator in the country to launch third generation (3G) mobile services. But the service is on the expensive side as mobile users in Delhi will have to pay a one-time fee of Rs 500 as activation charges and a monthly rental of Rs 599.
Apart from this monthly rental, mobile users would have to pay for their phone calls.
For Voice calls -
From MTNL mobile to other network - Rs 1/min.
From MTNL network to MTNL network - Rs .60/min.
For video calls -: MTNL charges vary between Rs 3 and Rs 1.80 a minute.
Customers can also get video streaming applications such as “Live TV”, movie downloads on their mobile handsets. Subscribers will have to pay Rs 5 for each MB download. For using 3G service in your mobile, you only require a 3G enabled handset. (I guess many of you must be having it).
Now talking about the Voip part in the launched 3G service. One will be able to use voip for making cheap international phone calls. MTNL is charging Rs 3/minute from mobiles to more than 100 countries including Europe, the US and Canada. In comparison, international calls on private operators’ network costs about Rs 6 a minute. MTNL is able to offer lower tariffs because it routes the call through the Internet network.
Well the calling rates for both video calls, and international phone calls using voip ae not at all cheap. We have blogged about so many voip providers offering free calls to those 100 countries including Europe, the US and Canada.
I guess at present, if you are willing to spend this much money then you can opt fo MTNL 3G service but if you can wait for sometime then you would be getting much cheaper services. (When more 3G providers comes to market). Till then better make use of our Free PC to Phone calling ways to free international phone calls.
Please post your queries about 3G service or any other, we will be more willing to answer all your problems.

SkyWi, Inc. Announces Intent to Sell VoIP Operations to Telekenex
Sponsered Ads
SkyWi, Inc. today announced signing a Memorandum of Understanding to sell all its VoIP operations to Telekenex, Inc., a well established 15 year-old national VoIP provider based in California.
The objective of this transaction is to take SkyWi's and One Connect IP's valued customers out of the middle of the conflict between SkyWi and Qwest that has resulted in significant service disruptions. Telekenex is on the New Mexico PRC's agenda in Santa Fe on Thursday February 5, 2009 to describe the plan and to request the PRC's assistance in ensuring a quick and orderly transition to the Telekenex network without any additional service disruptions. The companies plan on closing the sale quickly upon receiving satisfactory assurances that the customers' continuity will be supported by the PRC on Thursday, and that Qwest will work with Telekenex and SkyWi to complete a timely transition of service to Telekenex's network and systems without any further disconnections during that period.
SkyWi and Telekenex have planned a seamless transition that will provide customers with more services over a larger national footprint without any loss of current functional capabilities. "Our only concern is through the next 30-45 day transition period that Qwest will allow for and help facilitate in good faith a timely transfer of underlying physical circuits without damaging our customers' communications connectivity," said SkyWi CEO Allen Witters. "SkyWi regrets exiting a business we have invested millions of dollars in, but this transaction will protect our customers," Mr. Witters went on to say. Anthony Zabit, founder and COO at Telekenex commented, "It's very unfortunate that the business conflicts between Qwest and SkyWi have resulted in severe disruptions in service for thousands of people in New Mexico, Utah and Idaho, but at Telekenex we are excited about the opportunity to further expand our customer base and are prepared to commit all our resources and experience to removing all the customers from this conflict by managing a quick and seamless transition to our network."

Additionally, for those who prefer in-house product development, source code is available, encouraged, and supported. While other VoIP chip manufacturers do not allow customers to access source code for the purpose of customization, Adaptive Digital recognizes that one size does not fit all. By providing the source code option, Adaptive Digital empowers the manufacturer to customize, innovate and excel in the marketplace.

Adaptive Digital's VoIP chips address critical performance issues such as echo, latency, and packet loss, greatly reducing the impact of these impairments.
The inclusion of Adaptive Digital's AT&T certified "carrier grade" G.168 Plus(TM) packet echo canceller, which has the unique ability to handle round-trip delays of up to 512 milliseconds coupled with a built-in awareness and handling of packet-loss, makes the VoIP suite unparalleled in quality.
The availability of these integration-ready VoIP chips brings together a winning combination of TI's high performance silicon and Adaptive Digital's field proven high quality software. The VoIP chips are based upon Adaptive Digital's proven voice quality software running on TI's high performance C6424, TMS320C6452, and C6455 devices.
Customization is often very important to equipment manufacturers who wish to differentiate their products by incorporating features that are not available in competing products. Should modifications be necessary for your project, Adaptive Digital can customize a solution to fit your specific requirements.
Additionally, for those who prefer in-house product development, source code is available, encouraged, and supported. While other VoIP chip manufacturers do not allow customers to access source code for the purpose of customization, Adaptive Digital recognizes that one size does not fit all. By providing the source code option, Adaptive Digital empowers the manufacturer to customize, innovate and excel in the marketplace.

ebay will Sell Skype
Sponsered Ads
Skype's future as an eBay company is looking increasingly unsure as speculation mounts over its possible sale.
eBay's chief executive, John Donahoe, has done nothing to ease expectations of a sell-off. Last week he told analysts that "synergies between Skype and the other parts of our portfolio are minimal" and that it is "a great standalone business".
This follows his comments early last year when he said the company would be reassessed and sold if it did not benefit eBay or Skype.
Analysts point to the lack of a logical integration between the telephony service and the auction site.
Names being touted as potential buyers, include Google, which has shown interest in Skype in the past, and US telecoms giants AT&T and Verizon.
eBay purchased Skype for USD $2.6bn purchase of Skype in 2005.
In the auction company's financial results for the last quarter of 2008, revenue fell 7 per cent to USD $2.04bn, below market expectations.
Skype has seen revenues rise by 26 per cent.
Skype is also said to be preparing new applications for its VoIP software which could be introduced at next month's Mobile World Congress in Spain.
These are expected to involve a dedicated application for Apple's iPhone, a similar app for the BlackBerry Storm and via an update to Windows Mobile 6.5 itself.
This month, the company introduced Skype lite, a no-frills client meant for Android-powered devices and the many mobile phones that are capable of running Java applications.

Tokbox for free video calling

Great to see Tokbox on the cutting edge. Very handy for a Facebook user, and let's hope it will get more Facebook folks on Tokbox.1.01 was buggy for me on Firefox 3, but 1.02 is running smooth.Just a few things I noticed: it doesn't make a ringing sound like Tokbox does when you run it from the Tokbox website, and the person on the other end said they didn't hear a ringing on their end either. Also, in windowed mode, mine had scroll bars, and there was no option to resize the window other than go fullscreen.But the Tokbox team seems very responsive to problems and feedback from what I've seen, so I've faith that we'll see 1.03 pretty soon.I'll also add my request here for getting the Plugin on Digg as well as other social sites. Might there be a way to someday see Tokbox integration in forum software like vBulletin, phpbb, etc.?Looking forward to more Tokbox goodness. click here

FREE voip softwares to try
Sponsered Ads
Guys here are some free softwares u can use to make calls for free
1) voipbuster [Download]
2) Skype [Download]
3) Raketu
Pros: Raketu is a hip site, combining state-of-the-art communications with the networking style of MySpace and YouTube. Free calls can be made to landlines and mobile phones in 42 countries, which is very impressive. Also, features like live stream television allows for people to chat with their friends about what they are watching together.
Cons: Although seemingly perfect, this site does have some discouraging fine print: you will be required to make a $9.95 deposit into your account when registering before you start making free calls. They do not consider this a membership fee, however, but a “credit” for your new account. Think of it as insurance, should you wish to make a call to a location that isn’t covered by the free plan. It will likely be the only money you will ever have to spend at Raketu.[Download]
4) VoipCheap
Pros: VoipCheap should be more aptly titled “VoipFREE”. Unlike Skype, VoipCheap will allow you to make free phone calls to regular phone lines. This free service also includes many other countries, not just USA and Canada. The software is free to download and simple to start using right away, provided you have a headset or phone ready to plug in.
Cons: While VoipCheap does allow for free calls from your computer to regular phones, there is a weekly limit of 300 minutes per IP address. Watch that limit, or rates will apply to your calls! Should you choose to make a call to a paid destination, VoipCheap does require a very small credit deposit before dialing, not unlike Raketu’s credit system. Although their regular rates are still very cheap, the object here is to call for free.
[Download]
5) Gizmo
Pros: Like Skype, Gizmo offers free software and free calls to all other Gizmo users. The interface is very user-friendly and the company claims it “is as simple as instant messaging”. A bonus to this service is the “All Calls Free” plan, which states that Gizmo users can call other Gizmo users’ landlines and mobile phones, not just their computers.
Cons: Although Gizmo proudly boasts that users can make free calls to landlines and mobile phones, they really prefer you to make PC-to-PC calls. There are some very tedious (sneaky, some would say) rules to the “All Calls Free” plan at Gizmo. If not used properly, some hidden fees could sneak up on a Gizmo user, which is unfortunate. [Download]
6)Windows Live Messenger
Pros: PC-to-PC calls are always free when made between those who have MSN Messenger installed. VoIP novices may feel more comfortable with a provider like Windows, as the conglomerate is more likely to offer round-the-clock customer service should any problems arise. Also, the interface will look and feel familiar to longtime Windows aficionados.
Cons: There are no drawbacks to their PC-to-PC plan. However, should you decide to pay a low rate to call a landline with your computer, phone calls are limited to five minutes. For some, that is a major deal breaker.
[Download]
7)WengoPhone intends to circumvent any restrictions that Skype or Gizmo users experience. Their software allows for users to make free PC-to-PC calls to anyone else with compliant software, no matter who their VoIP provider is. This is a very subversive program and many tech-savvy folks are very happy with it.
Cons: The interface is very crude when compared to well-known providers like Skype or Raketu. Likewise, you may find their customer care to be lax when experiencing technical difficulties. Many Wengo users depend on their peers to help with any problems.[Download]
8)Level3
Pros: Level3 is a giant in the business of communications, so many companies will probably adopt their revolutionary VoIP service in the near future. Businesses can now handle all their toll-free calls through VoIP, thanks to Level3, and this is a completely free service. The prospect is a boon for call centers in particular, as well as offices that conduct a lot of conference calls.
Cons: There aren’t any drawbacks to this service to speak of, but it is limited to businesses and probably of no use to individuals making personal calls.[Download]
9) Internetcalls
Pros: Internetcalls is a popular alternative to services like VoipCheap, although they are practically identical. Like VoipCheap, all calls should be free to most destinations. Also, the service is now boasting improved sound quality, which is a relief to those wishing to use it for business purposes.
Cons: If you are a stickler about perfect sound and a short delay, you may wish to go with a larger company for VoIP service. This is a free to cheap program that is mainly used for personal calls, particularly people with friends and family out of the country. A troubleshooting guide can be found at the site, but it isn’t as nice or thorough as a paid providers’ 24-hour, live customer service.[Download]

SKYPE IS NOW INTEGRATED
Sponsered Ads
Skype voice and video calling are to be integrated into IBM’s new suite of cloud services, LotusLive.
LotusLive enables business and individuals to collaborate online, making inter-business co-operation easier and more efficient.
Skype functionality on LotusLive will provide seamless, real-time communication via video or voice link.
“We recognize that communications is an integral component of collaboration in an Internet-enabled world and that many small businesses have already adopted Skype,” said Sean Polley, vice president of online collaboration at IBM Lotus.
“This integration will simplify and improve the way businesses interact with their customers and partners.”
LotusLive currently offers two services: Meetings, and Events.
Meetings integrates audio and video conferencing at the cost of $48 to $99 per month depending on participant numbers.
Events helps users manage and host online conferences and webinars. Events costs $99 per month, or 30 cents per minute per guest.
Two other services, Notes and Engage, are yet to be launched.

Some Of the VOIP Threats ( VOIP SECURITY)
Sponsered Ads
A well-known fact that VoIP technology sends voice data over networks in the form of data packets. Data-networking technology allows IP telephony to provide an array of powerful and flexible call-management options at a rock-bottom cost.
IS VOIP SECURE WHAY DO U SAY!!!!
HERE ARE SOME THREATS
Threats
VoIP threats come in many forms, including:
- DDoS (distributed denial of service) Attacks: DDoS attacks, although largely viewed as a Web-site threat, can also be used to take down a VoIP system. By flooding a network with useless data — including automatically generated spam calls — attackers attempt to ensure that VoIP calls can't get through or proceed only in a delayed and degraded fashion.
- Snooping: Since some VoIP calls move over the open Internet, they are vulnerable to snooping at various points during their journey. An attacker with network access and a packet-sniffing program downloaded from the Web can monitor and record calls with relative ease. Even inside an enterprise that uses a private backbone, the same sniffing technologies can present a threat.
- SPIT (SPam over Internet Telephone): SPIT is still a largely theoretical threat, but it's one that has the potential to be just as distracting and resource-draining as its email equivalent. Only a handful of SPIT outbreaks have been reported to date, but "legitimate," automatically generated political and credit-card calls are already pushing the limits of acceptability.
- Vishing: The VoIP counterpart to email phishing , vishing attackers target the phone numbers of VoIP users and attempt to lure them into bogus moneymaking schemes or trick them into disclosing credit-card numbers and other vital information. Like SPIT, vishing is not a widespread issue, but it is a growing problem.
- Direct Hacks: Also like data networks, VoIP systems are vulnerable to direct hacks via unsecured "holes" in the system. Fortunately, also like data networks, there are groups watching for these vulnerabilities and pushing fixes out as soon as possible. These are usually system-specific problems, so for example, a new release of Asterisk , the open-source IP PBX platform, might display a vulnerability. Typically, a fix is announced within a couple of days of the vulnerability's discovery.
Security Approaches
Dealing with VoIP threats is a constant, never-ending chore. Since attackers are always devising new ways of breaching VoIP safeguards, it's important that businesses keep on top of the latest threats and adopt fresh measures to counter evolving attacker strategies. Most security experts recommend that VoIP safeguards be blended with the measures that are used to protect a company's existing data network, creating a comprehensive security environment. Common security techniques (which apply to data networks as well as VoIP networks) include:
- Firewall: A firewall is designed to allow or block data flowing into or out of a network. Firewalls are available as stand-alone hardware appliances or as software (typically installed inside a router or a gateway). A firewall can provide services such as stateful inspection (analyzing transactions to ensure that inbound packets were requested) and packet filtering (blocking data from specified IP addresses and ports).
- IDS (Intrusion Detection System): An IDS analyzes incoming data traffic for suspicious types of activity. If it detects something peculiar, the IDS alerts the network administrator, who can then move to halt whatever event (such as a DDoS onslaught) is taking place. A variety of vendors offer IDS solutions with all sorts of capabilities, allowing businesses to find a product that most closely matches their requirements.
- IPS (Intrusion Prevention System): An IPS is similar to an IDS, except that the product is designed to take immediate action — such as blocking a specific IP address or user — rather than simply issuing an alert. Some IPS products also use behavioral analysis to spot and stop potentially dangerous data.
- DDoS Protection: Specific anti-DDoS products from vendors such as Cisco Systems Inc. and Symantec Corp. can quickly detect the start of an attack, filtering out bogus service requests so that legitimate ones can pass through unimpeded.
- VPN (virtual private network): Placing the VoIP infrastructure on its own encrypted VPN "island" can isolate the system from external attacks.
Specific techniques for VoIP security usually focus on the human side of the equation and include:
- SPIT and Vishing Education: Many enterprises take it upon themselves to educate employees and other VoIP system users about SPIT and vishing attacks, as well as to be alert to signs that someone may be trying to tap into the business's phone system.
Fundamentally, there is no difference between VoIP security and the normal security requirements associated with any well-protected data network. In nearly all respects, VoIP, Web and email protection are simply different aspects of a single security issue.

Now you guys must be wondering, if this can only be used in USA. Not neccesarily, you can use it from anywhere in the world. However you need to use VOIP clients such as icall and voicecheap
This way you can connect to the Conference number FREE of cost and then use the access code to enter conference. This conference can be better than the traditional yahoo messenger conference which needs you to hold the mouse over the TALK button in order to talk. It becomes messy when you have more than 2-3 members. You know what i mean.
The best part is this service allows 96 concurrent users in a conference, which is so cool for a large group meetings or meetups.

USE VOIPaX 4 Free calls and SMS Worldwide Guaranteed
Sponsered Ads
This new service was launched recently by betamax or their affiliated company but no mention of betamax on their website. All their services and conditions are just exactly what we are all used to from betamax products like voipbuster, voipcheap etc. Maybe betamax is feeling the heat from complaints about their unethical business methods and therefore decided to launch this product as another company.
Anyway, Voipax is a voip application that lets you send sms and make calls to about 40 countries worldwide for free. The rates for other destinations are quite low too. There are several ways to use voipax, you can download and install the voipax application on your system and make calls with it using your headset or bluetooth earpiece or you can use the Phone-2-Phone features which let you enter your telephone number and the number you want to call and connect both numbers or finally you can configure voipax on your SIP based IP Phone and call directly from it. Whichever way you choose to use voipax you will get very good audio quality and quick call connection.
There are some limitations to using voipax, you have to buy a credit of at least 10 euros for you to enjoy the free calls. Once you have some credit on your account you can call up to 300 minutes per week free for 120 days and you can send 10 free sms per week too. If you have used any of betamax products before then you allready know these conditions by now.

TOP 5 VOIP PROVIDERS
Sponsered Ads
1) VOIPcheap - This is the original VOIPcheap and not the UK version of this company. Although VOIPbuster, voipcheap.co.uk uses the same software, i found this software more reliable and voice quality is of high level. This is an straight winner when it comes to making FREE calls worldwide. You can virtually call more than 50 countries on normal PSTN landlines and mobiles in singapore, USA, HK & Canada. With some hacks, you can call from countries which are not listed in FREE list but you have a work around. Check my earlier post for that hack.
Benefits: Clear voice, You can make calls from your PC. No need to buy any credits from them before making free calls. Allows PC or Phone to intiate call (via Directdial)
Drawbacks: really none.
2) Jajah: I tried jajah about 1 month back and with their FREE minutes i made calls to India. The difference between jajah and other VOIP providers is Jajah only allows you to make calls from your phone. That means You need to give your phone number and your calling party number before you can make a call. When you intiate a call Jajah first connect your phone. You pick up the call and then jajah connects to the other party.
Benefits: No software download needed. Just visit their site. No credits needed for free calls.
Drawbacks: Have to use a legitimate number before calling. Cant use PC to make call.
3) Gizmo : Popularly known as " Skype Killer". This software lets you call anyone in more than 60 countries. The only downside is that you and other party both should be registered with Gizmo and should also register your numbers. I am sure that this project will be successful and in short time the daatabase of people will be built and then its a FREE calling world.
Benefits: Making calls is easier than ever, Killer Application interface,
Drawbacks: Requires both parties to register their numbers with Gizmo.
4) Raketu- Pretty decent service which offers FREE calls to 42 countries. I am rating it higher than VOIPbuster/Discount for the very reason thats its not a clone and it uses a diff technology than skype. Skype uses Supernodes which can be vulnerable to hacking. I covered that issues in my blog earlier. Additionally it integrates with Yahoo, MSN messengers etc.
Benefits: Better technology, Clear Voice, 42 countries FREE, Integrate with other messengers
Drawbcks- Haven't found any yet.
5) VOIPBuster/VOIPDiscount: Both these companies are a total rip-off from VOIPcheap. even their softwares are identical and i wonder they are all one company with different websites and company name. But sorry to say they suck at the voice quality. They offer the same service as
VOIPcheap.

2009 free voip Provider Qttel
Sponsered Ads
VOIP Providers join the "free VOIP" revolution and offers unlimited free international calls around the world.
Today we take a look at Qttel.a simple Phone to Phone based VOIP Service which promises to give unlimited free voip to over 50 countries. Thanks to comment on our VOIP Provider of the Year 2008, thats where we discovered about this service, which seem to have changed the name recently. I remember using this service but a non-free version of it.
You must enter your number in international format.
QtTel is however a browser based VOIP service. It askes you to enter your phone number and your party's number and then Call. Qttel will first call you and then call the destination number. The biggest limitation of this service is it only works for 5 countries, Australia (FIX only),Canada (FIX & GSM!),UK (FIX only),Holland (FIX only),USA (FIX & GSM!). That means only people from this country can make calls. Of course if you have a incoming phone numberfrom any of these country you should be able to receive calls from Qttel and of course make free voip calls.
Please note all calls are limited to 5 minutes but it seems you may dial the same number and over and over. Please let us know your feedback on Qttel.
