silverglade Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I want to move to italy after i graduate, but i have no way of talking to them in privacy via pc to pc via skype because my cable connection is in my room. So i need a cheap wireless way to make unlimited calls using my notebook. right now it is not nearly enough, i am paying $25 for readybroadband wireless internet for my notebook and i only get 300mb for 30 days. i cant talk at that low transfer rate. i need to make cheap and long calls to italian people's computers or to their cell phones or even landlines if best. i need to be able to make the calls at college in privacy for a certain reason. otherwise i would just use skype pc tp pc in my room via cable. any ideas other than getting a cell phone with unlimited overseas calls please.

scootstah Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 What about Skype with the plan to call landlines? Or that magic jack thing. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/254154-wirelessly-calling-italy-solution/#findComment-1303067 Share on other sites More sharing options...
floridaflatlander Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I'm testing out magicjack now. I just installed it yesterday. You can go online and see their overseas pricing. You can buy it from them but I saw online where a guy suggested getting it from walmart so you can take it back easier if it's not what you need and that's what I did. Users at amazon give it a terrible rating but 78% of walmart reviewers said they'd suggest it to others. I think the main problem is that people's internet connection isn't fast enough, my magic jack works fine so far but the quality isn't as good as comcasts phone quality but I can work with it for this price(vs 600$ a year at comcast). "I think" I hear a small amount of static in the phone but I need to test it more and on longer conversations. The thingie cost 40 bucks, then 20$ a year after that and you can go anywhere with it and keep the same number, 911 only works at one location so that doesn't move, I transferred my comcast number to magic jack, that was another 20 dollars. This supposedly takes up to 10 business days. I started this tread several days ago and will post info as I play with it, if magic jack doesn't work I'll then try vonage which is still cheaper than comcast. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=350833.msg1655975#msg1655975 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/254154-wirelessly-calling-italy-solution/#findComment-1303076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
