Overview

Vigor 2710VDn ADSL Router/Firewall with VoIP, WiFi & DECT

The Vigor 2710VDn supports all of the features of the Vigor2710Vn with the addition of a fully-integrated buil-in DECT base. A DECT phone is a cordless phone that you typically use around your home. The Vigor2710VDn is 'GAP Compliant' which means you can use any DECT phone which is also GAP compliant, which most are. You can use DECT phones that you already have or new ones, but either way instead of connecting to their original bases, they will instead register and communicate with your Vigor2710VDn. You will still need the original phone 'base station' to charge the phone. Once the phone is 'paired' with the Vigor 2710VDn, they will still have access to your analogue line and but also be able to make full use of a VoIP service. The Vigor 2710VDn acts as a mini PBX (switchboard) so that you can call between handsets by dialling their extension number or transfer calls between them. The wired or DECT phones can make several simultaneous calls using any combination of your analogue or VoIP/SIP lines (connections); most regular DECT systems do not allow operation of multiple handsets at the same time for separate calls.

You can use any GAP compliant DECT phones (not included)

The Vigor 2710VDn also includes 802.11n Wifi so that your laptops and other wireless computer equipment can connect to the Internet and each other wirelessly.

Voice-over-IP

VoIP Capability

The Vigor 2710VDn provides one analogue phone port allowing you to connect any regular telephone to make and receive voice calls using your Internet connection (Voice over IP). You can use any SIP compliant VoIP provider, such as DrayTEL (a voucher is included in the box for some free DrayTEL calling credit to get you started).

You can also register any DECT phone (GAP compliant) to the Vigor2710VDn (maximum six cordless handsets). Using industry standard SIP-protocols, the VoIP facility enables you to make free Internet calls to any other compapible SIP user, or calls to the regular phone network (PSTN / Landlines / Mobiles) via a VoIP gateway service such as DrayTEL (or any other SIP compliant service).

You can make free calls to or from other SIP compatible VoIP users worldwide (it doesn't have to be another Vigor router, it can be a softphone on a PC or other hardware). Via a PSTN gateway, such as DrayTEL you can make calls to any regular telephone line or mobile 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 any phone

Te Vigor2701VDn connects to your regular analogue phone line too so with just a single phone on your desk or any of the DECT handsets, you can choose to make calls using VoIP via the Internet or switch over to your POTS line (your normal phone line) and dial out via the PSTN (the conventional phone network). By setting up the LCR (Least Cost Routing) facility, you can automate this process so that the router automatically sets your preferred route for calls, according to your own rules. Then, depending on the destination dialled, the router will use either your POTS line or one of up to 6 VoIP/SIP providers/gateways (for example DrayTEL).

Incoming calls can be received too - either from POTS or VoIP - the phones will ring on either. With automatic failover, 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.
