VoIP, or Voice over internet Protocol, is a means of making voice telephone calls over the internet. Broadly, the voice signal is sliced up into a large number of packets of digitised data and each packet finds its own way over the internet to its destination. There, the packets are re-assembled in the correct order, converted from digital back to an analog sound signal and, hey presto, your dulcet tones emerge into the as fresh as a daisy.
