Internet CenterPacket8 Broadband Telephone ServicePacket8 WorksI'm a recent customer of Packet8 and use their service every day. I find it amazingly simple and easy to use, and it's saving me a ton of money. They include lots of features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, and Call Forwarding. I definitely recommend this service!--Keith Linden, VP Marketing - PC Pitstop Packet8 lets you make high-quality phone calls using your broadband Internet connection. You use Packet8 like you would any telephone, because you actually use a regular telephone connected through Packet8's adapter to your broadband connection. Packet8 service has these features:
Sign up for Packet8 now and get $5 off the Activation fee! How does Packet8 work?When you sign up, Packet8 provides a phone adapter (called a DTA) free of charge. This box plugs into your existing network set-up and does not prevent your computer's use of the broadband connection. If you don't already have a firewall/router (such as a Linksys or Netgear box), you can easily pick one up at your local electronics store. A standard telephone plugs into the DTA box, you get a dial tone, and you're ready to go. The following diagram shows a typical Packet8 configuration.
Great RatesCurrently, Packet8 is offering unlimited calls to anywhere within the USA and Canada for $19.99/month for residential users. Packet8 has great international rates--often about 5 cents per minute to call Europe. Your new phone numberBefore Packet8 assigns you a phone number, you get to pick the area code. This can allow distant friends and family to contact you by making a local call. For example, if a relative lives in area code 610 and you live in area code 650, Packet8 can supply you with a number in the 610 area code. You can even purchase additional local numbers in other area codes that will also ring to your Packet8 line, saving your callers a long distance charge. Packet8 Special Offer:Right now Packet8 is running a promotion where you use pitstop as your coupon code and you receive $5 off your activation costs. That is over a 15% savings on Freedom Unlimited plan. Interested? Find out more and/or subscribe for service. |
