If I had to guess, they probably either charge a per minute rate (the
base phone line is free) or they charge for long distance only.<br>

What I do not see is the business model, i.e. how do they make
money?<br>
<br>

<br>
<b>Softphone Configuration<br>

get the
softphone<a moz-do-not-send="true" name="11"></a> functioning properly
after installing it?<br>
Our softphone operates on UDP ports 13000, 13001, 5060, 5061, 6060 and
6061. Please make sure these ports are opened in any firewall, internet
security suites and hardware routers you may have in your home.<br>
<br>
<b>What¢s the catch? Do I need to enter a password, PIN number or
listen
to advertisements before I make my free call?<br>
</b>NEVER! We offer you free phone lines with zero catches. There
will
never be advertising, tricky dialling procedures or any other catches
when it comes to making your free calls!<br>
<br>
FYI: Fibernetics is also the parent company of 295.ca,
