This is useful.
I ported my number to Google Voice in 2011, and have used that as my main number ever since (Iphone), changing providers quite a few times in the middle.
Never used an IP phone with it, but this use case would require it.
>if you're calling someone else on an IP/wireless phone, the lag/conflict can get interesting
Good to know, didn't realize this was an issue.
- tracker1 10y agoIt's just that each hop adds latency... cell phones are bad enough, and cell to cell is worse... gv is effectively cell + IP ... and with the two on either side, it's wild. If you ever notice when you and someone else start talking, and step on eachother... it's mostly because of the additional latency cell and IP phones tend to add on top of what POTS phones would have.
