? maybe one of youll can answer

hey im looking for an internetwork intercom
if youll know of any free ones let me know
i have one called officeintercom and its pretty good but its only 30 day trail period
so i thought youll might help me crack it or find a free one

 

Can you be more a specific? what does it need to be able to do? Voice comunication on a network?

 

yeah voice com.
its like a telefone but over a network i can talk throu computers but with out useing the internet or a modem

its like the intercom sys at a skool
or like a pa system that 2 way
2 way walkie talkies

 

You'd need to be connected via a network at least <be it lan or internet>
Just use NEt meeting, comes with windows. type in their IP and wham your golden

 

well i knew that would work but i was looking for something that would really work like an intcom system so i could take with like 3 at the same time cuz i have 5 comps on the network and they all end up playing games and haveing all the nosie we cant hear what one another said and they are in 5 different rooms and something that low ram low cpu so that they will work in the background

 

Google SpeakFreely.

Takes a bit of setting up but once it works it works.......

 

do i know if its free and where can i get it and i can set it up im sure

 

hey thanks both of youll that helped me out alot it works somewhat i have a few bugs but i think its feed back thanks for the help thou

 

not sure if you've gotten everything setup already, but A large community I know uses

Teamspeak

it requires little memory and uses very little bandwidth, and the sound quality is great. all you'd have to do is set up The Serverside tool on one computer, and the Client tool on the other comps and have them connect to the server... voila.

just an FYI if you wanna try it out. its Free

 

wow, thanks, its a lot better than anything else ive seen, and ive been looking for one of them for ages!!!!

Thanks loads!

gunna have to see whether i can get out onto the internet with this, need to find out what ports it uses so i can forward them

 

it works fine through my router without having to forward any ports! I am not sure if you are behind anything else.... but either way, it should workout quite nicely

glad to have helped

 

how does this work compared to gamevoice (www.gamevoice.com) ?

 

I'm not sure as far as quality goes, but gamevoice looks like it has lots of other features too, and I may be old fashioned, but i prefer the more basic layout of Teamspeak.

I actualy like having the server tool to connect to, and the administrative privelages to the server can be granted to anyone that connects (and registers there IP with the server)

I didnt look into gamespeak too much, but if you have any particulars that you like about it, I'd like to hear them, to see if its worth trying out

 

I have game voice and don't even use it anymore. Each user must by the $50 unit and headset from M$. The best feature of it though is that you can group different people together and hit a button to talk to only your team, everyone......but it was failry buggy. For now online I use Roger Wilco and it's free. It is fairy simple to use after the initial set-up.

 

yeah, Teamspeak is pretty similar to RW, but i prefer it. Better sound quality and ease-of-use in my opinion.

 

erm, gamevoice is free

if you want the groovie groups with the hardware, then you have to fork up the cash.

 

thanks youll i appreacte it
