What is Viasat Voice?
Voice is a home phone solution that uses VoIP technology. Traditional phone service sends and receives call signals through copper cable landlines, but VoIP, which stands for voice over internet protocol, sends and receives calls over your internet connection. Voice, the VoIP home phone service from Viasat, is designed to work optimally with Viasat Internet to provide the best possible call quality.

What you need to set up Voice over IP
Some VoIP phone systems require special IP phones, but Viasat Voice lets you use the same landline phone you used before. All you have to do differently is plug the phone set into your Viasat modem instead of into the hardwired wall-jack, and presto—your internet telephone service awaits.
