Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make a phone call?
Pick up the phone and dial. Use 7-, 10-, or 11-digit dialing for calls within the same area code as your Internet
phone number. Use 10- or 11-digit dialing for calls outside of your area code.
Can I make calls if my Internet connection is down?
No. Your high-speed Internet connection must be active when you make Internet phone or fax calls.
Can I make calls while I’m browsing the Internet?
Yes. You can make Internet phone or fax calls while browsing the Internet. However, your web browsing may
affect the quality of your telephone call, depending on the amount of upstream data traffic passing through your
Internet connection.
Can I receive calls while my network is down?
You cannot directly receive calls while your network is down. However, your Internet phone service provider can
forward calls to a different telephone number, such as a cellular phone number, if you activate a feature called
Network Availability Number. You can configure this feature through your service account.
