A hardware IP phone, also referred to as a 'hard phone', is a self contained IP telephone. It looks just like a conventional phone, but instead of a conventional phone jack, it has an Ethernet port through which it communicates directly with a VoIP server, VoIP gateway or another VoIP phone. Since a broadband hard phone communicates directly with a VoIP server, VoIP gateway or another VoIP phone it does not require any personal computer nor any software running on a personal computer to make or receive VoIP phone calls. It can be used independently, all that is required is an internet connection. While PC based software solutions are cheaper, a hard phone is the best solution for IP telephony.

SecureEasySetup (SES) functionality on the WIP300 makes
establishing a connection with a Linksys Wireless-G router as easy
as pressing two buttons, one on the phone and one on the router. A
highly secure WPA-encrypted connection is established that allows
the user to make VoIP calls from within that network.
