Router and method for controlling voice communication in instant messaging tool of router

Abstract

The invention discloses a router and a method for controlling voice communication in an instant messaging tool of the router, and relates to the technical field of network communication. A voice module and a standard telephone interface RJ11 are configured on the router. Moreover, the instant messaging tool is arranged in the router. The method for controlling voice communication in the instant messaging tool of the router comprises the following steps that: after off-hook and dialing of an external telephone is detected, the voice module in the router collects a number dialed by the telephone and transmits the collected number to the running instant messaging tool, the instant messaging tool sends a voice communication invitation to one side of the dialed number, and communication between both sides is started if the other side accepts the voice communication invitation; and when another person sends the voice communication invitation to an instant messaging number logging into the router, the external telephone sends a ringing signal, and a user hooks off in order that communication between both sides can be performed. After application of the router and the method, people can perform voice communication easily and conveniently like making of telephone calls by using the instant messaging tool, and a large quantity of telephone charges can be saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network communication technology, in particular to a router and its method for controlling voice calls in instant messaging tools. Background technique [0002] A router is a network device that connects multiple networks or network segments. It performs the behavior and actions of transmitting data from one place to another, and "translates" data information between different networks or network segments, so that They "read" each other's data to form a larger network. The existing SOHO broadband router is a high-speed access router located at the edge of the operator's network. The high-speed access of multiple users sharing one account includes the broadband Internet or the baseband bus LAN Ethernet, referred to as the backbone network of Ethernet. Many existing routers have VOIP function (such as Motorola VT2442 router). This type of router has a standard telephone interface RJ11, which is connected to...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the above-mentioned technologies also have deficiencies: first, VOIP calls are generally subject to the influence of policies and cannot be widely used; ), if the party answering the call also pays the phone bill when answering the call, it will cost more (such as when roaming abroad)

Because the above-mentioned process is relatively cumbersome, and there are still quite a few people who don’t know how to use instant messaging tools (there are quite a few people who don’t know how to use computers now), even if there is no direct telephone bill during the call, people can use it in their daily work and life. Still use IM less for voice calls and more for phone calls

Although calling will incur telephone charges, but because of its simplicity and convenience, almost all people can make calls without learning
