There are two types of IP packet communication services:
*: The streaming IP packet communication method provides uninterrupted transmis-
sion of audio and video, provided you are within the guaranteed bandwidth. However,
if you can accept broken audio and video, you can use the standard IP communica-
tion. When selecting which service to use, consider whether stable communication or
communication fee is important.
Note: The cost of streaming IP packet communication may be unexpectedly high, so
please use caution.
