I previously had VOIP service with a different carrier.
I was able to configure my laptop's softphone to work with my phone number from anywhere. I could also take a VOIP device and set it up so all I needed was an internet service and the phone would work.
What are the setting I need to use to provide access to my Rogers number over voip?
Thanks!

@ScottSutRogers HomePhone does use VoIP technology but unlike independent VoIP providers it does not provide an ATA device that you can take anywhere with you to make calls over the internet, and does not provide a "softphone" app that can be installed on a smartphone. There are very convenient features, just not available here, and likely never will be.

Hey @ScottSut!
Welcome to the community!
Apologies as Rogers does not have support for this particular feature. If this is possible perhaps other's in the community may be able to provide their experience :).
All the best!
