hadsthomi: Sorry, out of the country. Not too sure, most everything I know of is SIP. I think 2Talk might do IAX2 but I've not used it.22:06
thomihads: you've had good results with SIP? I was avoiding it because I'd read that IAX was a far superior protocol for every day usage22:07
thomibut I'm willing to consider SIP if you have a positive experience with it :)22:07
chiltsmorning22:16
hadsthomi: SIP is used everywhere these days and generally works well as long as the gear is decent.22:28
hadsIAX2 is not really used anywhere except Asterisk.22:28
hadsand even there probably not that much22:28
thomihads: ok, I was going to build a small asterisk setup on one of these http://www.pcengines.ch/22:29
thominot really sure what kind of gear a super-small PBX setup needs though22:29
hadsSure, the ALIX work well, we've sold loads of them. Quite low power so don't expect too much from them.22:29
thomihads: right, but should be more than enough handle 2 simultanious calls, right?22:30
thomiI'm probably doing the geeky thing and massively over-engineering the solution here22:30
hadsThey will handle quite a few concurrent calls as long as you aren't doing transcoding and things.22:31
thomiI see22:31
thomisop, can you recommend a sip provider?22:32
chiltsibeardslee: does 12:30 sound ok? I'm don't really have an opinion where, don't know about where's good anymore :)22:32
chiltsI'd pass up sushi, but most other things are fine :)22:32
hads2Talk is probably the most common in NZ, I've used them for probably 5 years or so and they are good. If you sign up use "nicetech" as a referral code :)22:34
thomihads: will do, thanks22:36
