- 1). Choose a voice-over IP provider. If you will make just a few calls, then you can use services like Skype. Skype is a software that can be downloaded to your computer and allows you to dial other users that use Skype and other phones. You can also choose providers like Vonage or Joi. Both providers will send you a phone adapter so you can connect your phone to your computer.
- 2). Connect your phone to your computer using the phone adapter that is provided by your VOIP provider. Plug the telephone cord of your telephone into the phone adapter, which is usually labeled "Telephone."
- 3). Connect your high-speed Internet modem or router to your phone adapter. Disconnect your Ethernet cord that is connected to the back of your computer and plug it into the back of your phone adapter in the port marked "Internet."
- 4). Obtain an additional Ethernet cord and plug one end into the back of your phone adapter and plug the other end in the back of your modem that was once connected to the back of your computer.
- 5). Make a phone call. Your modem and phone adapter must be plugged into a wall outlet.
