PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an Internet phone server device which improves convenience by enabling a user to make a call at the user's discretion and connect the call to a destination, and makes the Internet phone available at a lower cost. SOLUTION: An ISP system comprises a data base with a user telephone number and information on a nearby ISPA, a telephone number acquisition means 23 which acquires a destination telephone number when the user calls, an ISPA acquisition means to find a nearby ISPA of the destination from the acquired telephone number, and a general public circuit call origination means 25 which originates a call via a general public circuit from the destination ISPA to an Internet phone after arrival of the call. A user calls at his/her discretion, and the call can be connected even if the destination side is not in the standby state by IP connection. This improves user convenience remarkably and makes the Internet phone available at a lower cost. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
