    It would be nice if you read the responses to your previous questions. I have already covered the first question.
    Depends. You can do VOIP over other methods of connection, such as leased lines, radio links etc

    Yes. If somebody has supplied you with say an Ethernet connection.

    VOIP doesn't *have* to use DSL. If you make it a requirement to use DSL then the same rules as for DSL apply. i.e. DSL runs over a limited set of types of telephone lines.

    In my example you just use an Ethernet card.

    Because not everywhere offers connections that don't need modems.

    You need modems when the connection offered is an older analogue type. Pure digital connections don't need modems.
