Phone companies have used VoIP technology for some time to route phone calls from one place to another. Many phone company's route calls through an IP Gateway. This reduces the amount of bandwidth they have to use when transferring calls to local switches.
VoIP Advantages

Commercially VoIP has been doing well, now consumers just need to jump on the bandwagon and start learning how VoIP can benefit them when placing calls.
