Getting started
Getting started with PAYG
To get started you need a piece of internet telephony hardware or a softphone, an Internet connection and an Orbtalk account. There are several types of hardware/software that you can use to connect to Orbtalk.
• An IP Phone - this plugs straight into your network or broadband router and just needs to be configured with your Orbtalk account details.
• A VoIP Adaptor - If you want to use your ordinary analogue phone with Orbtalk then plug it straight into a VOIP Adaptor and configure your adaptor with your Orbtalk account details.
• A VoIP Router - Routers provide access to the Internet for multiple devices. They can be wired or wireless to suit your needs. A VoIP compatible router can also be used like a VoIP adaptor.
• A Softphone which is simply a software based phone that operates from your computer and uses your Internet connection to make Internet Telephony calls. It can be used with a USB Phone or conputer headset.
