 MikeB3 join:2004-01-20 Los Altos, CA | what the IPP (Internet Phone Patch) does It is typically used in situations like the following (just the same functionality looked at from two perspectives):
1. International call bypass a) you make calls to another country and want to reduce the charges b) get a pstn line in that country along with an internet connection, place a SIP Client adaptor in that country connected to the IPP. c) When you make a call, you call to the SIP client adaptor in the other country and get local dial tone, then dial the number you want. Local call charge only. d) calls to the local number are automatically transferred to your sip adaptor overseas.
2. Call transfer to another country a) you move temporarily to another country b) connect an IPP to your phone line and a SIP Client adaptor, and take another client sip adaptor with you to where you travel to. c) calls to you home phone ring your sip adaptor where ever it is. In the other direction, you can dial out from your home line.
