Re: Tips for Running VoIP from a Wireless Connection

Hotels which offer "Wireless Only" high speed internet access sometimes have Wifi bridges available for guests.

In my experience, the use of the Wifi bridge is free; however, you need to leave a hefty deposit (tyically $100) to borrow one. When you check out, if you return the bridge, you get your deposit back.

Re: Tips for Running VoIP from a Wireless Connection

Rizzo,

Great advice, I would have never thought to ask. Unfortunately, I'm in a Tokyo apartment where I'm expected to supply my own wireless adapter. No worries though. Your ICS suggestion is working flawlessly.

Thanks,
Dajabon

 Update for me..I am staying at a Residence Inn up in RI. What I did is use my wireless card to get on the internet, then used ICS to share the connection with the NIC card...The only thing to remember is to use a CROSSOVER cable going from the NIC card to the VOIP device (in my case a Vonage RTP300)
Works very well...
