Oh yes sorry it's not true VOIP but it uses the normal internet via a regular phone, hence the little adapter they sent out to households ages ago with a letter informing of the switchover. No bother for me as I have a landline via Vonage so already have voip in place long as there's internet. Re: Virginmedia Fibre is it fibre? @davrob They already are using VOIP bypassing phone lines, I got my little dongle that connects to the HUB5 last year to plug in the phone to. Your premium will not be reduced because of this, analogue lines are just going over the internet is all. Re: Virginmedia Fibre is it fibre? 200Mbps is nothing and any phone made in the last few years can easily maintain 200Mbps over WiFi. It's when you start getting into the 500Mbps+ internet packages where you really start to encounter the overhead ranges of WiFi and where distance/WiFi type matter more and dictate how fast a speed test will be. Re: Virginmedia Fibre is it fibre? No. to get the full fat speeds you need to be using wired. Wireless has overheads involved so will never reach maximum speeds generally. Plus no wireless device like those mentioned will ever need or benefit from such speeds anyway.
