  1. @dries Klopt, en de #SPA112 is wat moderner dan de #PAP2T bakjes die ik gebruikte. Moet dus zeker OK zijn om een analoge telefoon met een #VoIP nummer te koppelen.

  9. If i get VOIP service (from my existing broadband provider, hi @aaisp ), do i have to get a Serious VOIP Phone, or can i just run some janky software on my Mac/Linux-box/Raspberry Pi and make calls? And does anyone here do that? I'm not particularly interested in making or getting calls, but it might be useful to have a household shared voicemail, and maybe create some amusing phone trees.

  29. sipgate unter Linux: ein Softphone, das Kontakte und Kalender aus der eigenen Nextcloud kennt

    Ein Softphone unter Linux, das an meinem sipgate-Konto hängt und beim Klingeln den Namen aus meiner eigenen Nextcloud anzeigt statt einer nackten Rufnummer. Der Weg dahin führt nicht über CardDAV im Telefon, sondern über den evolution-data-server, und das Softphone merkt davon nichts. Dazu die Frage, was bei so einem Anruf eigentlich verschlüsselt ist, einmal nachgemessen statt geglaubt.

  42. Of all the weirdo decisions taken in the #telecoms industry, I can't fathom the logic behind #Telcel blocking access to #VoWifi from #Starlink terminals.

    In rural #Mexico there has been a massive uptake of starlink, such that in areas where there is a lack of direct mobile coverage from #2G, #3G, or #LTE towers, the most likely alternative is going to be a starlink.

    So why then deny access to service for those customers connected in this way? After all, VoWifi calls are charged at the same rates as those routed over the mobile RAN (even as they don't actually use any resources on it)

    Usually, #MNOs (#Mobile #Network #Operators) are blocking access to their #IMS over IP from outside the home country - in order, we presume to not have customers avoid the industry's outlandish "#roaming" charges. (there are some notable exceptions)

    But in the case of Starlink, (as far as I can make out) - all the terminals in a national territory are routed via the ground station in that country. - I sort of understood this may be a requirement for operation?

    So why not add starlink's #Mexican IPs to a whitelist for telcels?

    Of course... we could all have been doing something else since long ago; #VoIP is a thing, VoWifi is just glorified VoIP, just as IMS is a glorified #SIP server.

    But then there would not be so much #control...

  51. Your phone number is basically an ID card. 2FA logins tie it straight to your carrier identity — hand it out once and it's a public lookup back to you.

    Rob Braxman breaks it into 3 privacy levels: 1) virtual number + forwarding, 2) full SIP app for a second line, 3) full isolation — no traditional number, data-only SIM.

    Note: the principle applies with any VoIP provider or data-only SIM, not just the one he demos.

  56. @bloor As a reasonably technical person helping walk others through this process:

    • Communications from legacy landline providers regarding service termination has been ... abysmally poor and inconsistent. Deadlines are neither clearly nor consistently communicated.

    • There Is A Place for a location-oriented phone service rather than personal mobile devices.

    • Phone spam is a massive problem in many places, though also very inconsistent. Those who are not presently experiencing the scourge 1) count your blessings and 2) just wait. Full VOIP seems to offer better controls for this than mobile comms.

    • Drop-in alternatives for landlines are ... not clear. I've come across ATAs, though in truth I'd probably prefer to upgrade at least some of the handsets.

    • As a Market Of One, what I'd very much like is a great deal of control and insight over incoming traffic. Some sort of VOIP server (I'm familiar with Asterisk, would be interested in others), and the ability to manage incoming calls (flat rejection, challenge, direct-to-voicemail, ring specific extensions, forward to mobile), offer SIP on mobile (outside the Android/iOS duopoly) ... and log and report/review activity and errors. Oh, and Because Reasons, intercept and play a Long Litany of Crimes to any incoming calls from specific bad-actor telcos, urging their customers to go elsewhere.

    • Oh: I've heard of issues with VOIP security and hijacking accounts for spam. Would like to avoid that.

    I've been arguing for a while that we're on the verge of the Death of Telephony. HN discussion yesterday of France's telemarketing ban had many people commenting that they've largely abandoned not only landlines, but PSTN voice comms, generally for proprietary apps (Whatsapp, Zoom, etc.).

    • Communications from legacy landline providers regarding service termination has been ... abysmally poor and inconsistent. Deadlines are neither clearly nor consistently communicated.

    • There Is A Place for a location-oriented phone service rather than personal mobile devices.
