What equipment do I need to have to set up my own VOIP?

Here's What You Need to Have to Set Up VOIP

If you want to set up your first VOIP network, here's what you absolutely need to have before you can make calls:

* A high-speed Internet connection.
* A VOIP phone service (like Vonage, Skype, etc.).
* A phone, microphone or speaker phone.
* An adapter to connect your phone to the Internet connection.

If you want to use a computer-based VOIP service, like Skype, or any of the MSN/Google/AOL/Yahoo talk clients, you will also need to have a computer connected up to the Internet. But if you're going to use a regular phone for VOIP, a computer is not required.
