(1) Dialup Internet access in not recommended by Voiceglobe, as the quality is seriously affected, in most of the times. However, if the access bandwidth is more than 45Kbps, it can be selected, using only proper commercial Softphone applications with high compression codec implemented. A bandwitdt calculator can be used in order to select the proper codec.

(2) SOHO: Small office / Home Office
