1. Through the softphone (think Skype, but more configurable).
2. Yes, more latency in most situations on incoming calls. Voip.ms does let you choose servers in different cities/countries, so your ISP’s routing starts to matter. It might be better or worse than Google Voice, I don’t have any experience with GV.
3. I think most people here could figure it out, but having to google “softphone” isn’t a great start :)
4. Nice thing about this whole setup is that you can turn it all off in a few keystrokes on your phone, and then your cellphone rings normally. You don’t have to worry about your phone number being lost unless you get sim-swapped. If voip.ms goes down, your incoming calls will stop until you deactivate it as above.
One positive is that you can set up your incoming calls to simultaneously ring multiple phone numbers and softphones if you wanted.
