compatible with ADSL, ADSL2 and ADSL2+ for line speeds up to 24Mb/s. The
Vigor2700 series is compatible with all standard ISPs in the UK/NI and
Channel Islands. ADSL2+ gives increased speed (and higher speed over a
given distance) than original ADSL.
VoIP Capability ('V' Models only)
The Vigor2700V and
Vigor2700VG models provide, Voice-over-IP capability. A phone
port on the rear allows you to connect any regular telephone (cordless
or corded) to make and receive voice calls using your Internet
connection.

You can make free calls to or from other compatible VoIP users
worldwide and via a PSTN gateway, such as
DrayTEL you can make calls to any regular telephone line or mopbile
phone worldwide, at low DrayTEL rates. DrayTEL will also allocate you
your own normal phone number for anyone to call you on. (Note : DrayTEL
is operated independently of DrayTek Corp.). You can use any other VoIP
providers too, as long as they are "SIP compliant". Pre-set 'QoS
assurance' automatically gives priority to VoIP traffic so that call
quality is maximised from your available Internet bandwidth. Selectable
codecs allow you to tune your ideal VoIP parameters for best call
quality and bandwidth use.
POTS & VoIP Access from one phone
In addition to the ADSL Line, the Vigor2700V connects
to your regular analogue phone line too so with just a single phone on
your desk, you can choose to make calls using VoIP via the Internet or,
by dialling #0 before the call, switch over to your
POTS line and dial out via the PSTN (the conventional phone network -
for example BT). Incoming calls can be received from either source too -
either POTS or VoIP - the phone will ring on either. The Vigor2700V
features automatic failover, so in the event of power loss, the Vigor
automatically switches your phone over to the POTS line so that you can
still make/receive calls. Additionally, if you have a VoIP phone number
(SIP Address) in the speed dial memory, you can also specify a backup
phone number for each entry, so in the event of Internet loss, the
router will automatically dial an alternative number via your regular
telephone line.
