I set up a Teamspeak server on my Linux router computer for the WoW Lurkers
If interested, try it out and let me know how it works. I just set a few options and set it on it's way. I don't really know what I'm doing, but it works fine on my internal network. I have been unable to test it from outside the firewall yet, so let me know if it even works from outside. I'm pretty sure I set the ports right on the firewall, but it would be nice to have some confirmation.
The computer is up 24/7 but the connection is sometimes sporadic. It's my private DSL line and I've set it to a max of 10 people for now, my upsteam bandwidth can handle a few more, but we'll see how this goes. I'm out over 17000 feet, so sometimes the line tanks for no reason. In 95% of these cases the line is back up in the time it takes my modem to re-train (20 seconds or so)
I encourage people to try it out. Make a channel for your server when you come on.
The IP is: 64.81.59.71
The password is one of my favorite Bolty creations: chargedboltress
If you don't have Teamspeak, it's a pretty easy to use voicecomm program that is free to use. It can be downloaded from: http://www.goteamspeak.com
There is an option for people without microphones to listen only.
I suggest setting up PTT (Push to talk) instead of the default (voice activation) because I always hear things I shouldn't when people have voice activation on (parts of phone conversations, people smoking into the microphone, all kinds of weird stuff).
Please let me know how it goes, and welcome.
