* Speed it up. Years ago people had to depend on the slower dial-up for their Internet connection. These days it is essential for businesses to be on the Internet and to use it for many of their transactions. Even if you use it just for paying bills you will find that it is faster and more convenient. Time saved is money saved or made. Business adsl offers a much faster way to connect to the Internet.
* Business adsl does not need a landline to connect; rather it uses the same connection as your computer. This saves money in that you don’t have to pay for line maintenance and expensive phone calls. Many calls can be free – and if those annoying road works destroy the phone line it won’t affect your business.
* One con of business adsl is that some rural areas do not have access to a fast broadband connection. When the connection is slow, the number of subscribers online at any one time can make download times even slower. However, it seems that this is being addressed.
* Some connection types are slower than others and if you have a slow connection the voice quality can be affected. Even so, business adsl is still one of the most popular ways of connecting to the world.
I just want to inform everyone to a new web site called VoIP Spear (www.voipspear.com) to measure your QoS. It's the Internet's best and most accessible QoS testing service. It utilizes packet loss, latency, and jitter to calculate a MOS score between 1 (very poor quality) and 5 (excellent quality) for your Internet connection. VoIP Spear runs 24x7x365 so you can always have an idea of what your VoIP QoS is.
ReplyDeleteVoIP Spear shows your QoS in easy-to-read charts. You can also have it send you email alerts when your quality drops too low.
VoIP Spear (www.voipspear.com) is free for personal use.
