Re: But...
That is only if they are doing digital phone though. For VoIP it would use your internet connection just like Vonage and all the others.
Unles they are doing something totally different that I do not know about. |

Sure are. They are currently using an Arris modem that does only VoIP. It hooks up exactly like your cable modem does, and usually sits right next to it. It handles VoIP while your modem handles all your data. Both run on different data channels so uploads won't be effected. It's a similar solution to what Cablevision is using. They use the Motorola SBV4200, the data and VoIP data channels are separate while both are contained by the same device. |

hescominsoon is right, cable companies will sell VoIP as another Internet access on his own QUAM wich is a plus against third party VoIP providers.
