I used Ekiga (http://ekiga.org/) and twinkle (http://www.twinklephone.com) but now I switched to a hardware phone which is more comfortable and reliable (you don't leave your computer on the whole night and day, do you?). > And I mean software as well as network. Network? What do you mean? It's just the internet and you can call any IP address on this network. If you mean provider and the fact that you can easily call other customers from the same provider, see below. > Please also mention your cost for calling to landlines with your voip > solution. There are so many providers worldwide! I would be surprise you don't find one that have the best tariff for your favorite destination. That's the main advantage : you are free to choose and you are not locked in the tariff of your unique provider! Note that this can be seen as a disadvantage too since it's hard to choose. Note also that all providers are not strong on all destinations so you might have to work with two or three providers according to your usage. Please also be sure that this is a trade-off between price and quality. Don't expect high quality if you don't pay anything to your provider... If in doubt, I can suggest a Belgian provider I work with. But, to give a rough idea, I've already called landlines in Belgium from 0 (zero) cent to 2.7 cents / minute. >From computer to computer, this is always free[1], for sure. > And while you're at it, please document it somewhere on the Ubuntu wiki. Well, Ekiga is part of the Ubuntu core : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga Would it be interesting to work on a "Belgianized" version...? Have a great day. [1] I mean : no extra charge. You have to have an internet connection. -- Gaëtan Frenoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be
