A: In Senegal, provided that you have a strong internet connection with sufficient cable, most of the VoIP services should recommend we allow you to call back to the uS. We really like VOIPo to its very low introductory rates, customer service, and easy installation.
As you will actually bring your US number with you, you will not need a special international calling plan unless you also plan to use your system to make local calls within Senegal, in this case, you should look for a good call rates to Senegal. You can usually find information on rates to specific countries with each supplier on the supplier's website. For detailed instructions, see this blog to find specific calling rates with our preferred suppliers.
You mention your city has available wireless, and while this is fine for most purposes, VoIP adapters require Internet wired to work. Check this post for previous blog for information on this type of connection you'll need. While you can have success with slightly lower speeds, most agree that you will have a sound enough quality time with 256 mbps upload and download services. You can contact the members of the nonprofit group that are already in Senegal for more information on the internet, you have access to.
