Questions about switching to VOIP
#11
[quote M A V I C]The coax in my house is not good. For internet, I have a new line run to my house, and then a new line from there to my modem.

How tough is it to get two VOIP lines?
Why do you want 2 VOIP lines? IS it to have 2 numbers, or to be able to call out on 2 lines simultaneously.

SunRocket allows you to have 2 (or more) numbers on one line. 2 numbers are included, ones beyond that are an extra $2 or $3/month.

I'm guessing its technically possible to have as many VOIP lines as you want, as long as you have bandwidth (internet) that will support them all at the same time. You'd likely have to pay for additional accounts for each additional available line.

Many of the VOIP boxes include setups for 2 lines, so I'm guessing this is not that uncommon a request.

I'm not sure the quality of the coax in your house will make a big difference. More likely it is the usage patterns of your neighborhood and whether or not it saturates the maximum bandwidth and chokes what you are getting as a fraction of that. If you are getting a high enough quality signal to carry the internet and cable TV signals, the bottleneck is likely somewhere else. The Cable company can connect to your line and tell you how good your signal is, if you have a doubt... though they might charge you for a service call.
