Hacking VOIP

Voice over IP is typical networking with a twist. People who don’t know networking or don’t understand networking in it’s entirety usually become intimidated by VOIP. It is so frustrating for me as a VOIP professional and a Networking Architect the feed on the ignorance that alot of people have about VOIP.

As easy as it is to run a website one could start a VOIP phone service such as what Skype and Jajah have and completely generate capitol. Having this knowledge makes me feel powerful. Not able to capitalize makes me feel lazy. I can be lazy, I have a full time job and full time hobbies like these websites. Still, operating a service is twice as easy as you would think.

1) download Asterisk PBX and install it on a public webserver

2) Purchase DID’s. Very cheap. IP trunk to a provider.

3) Advertise.

Softphones are a dime a dozen. But if you want a free one use X-lite. It is the cheap version of Ibeam. And there you have it, you are now a VOIP provider.

    Is it possible to do this in the Caribbean? Would you like to start a business in the islands.
