VoIP over a 15 PC's LAN.

[Regulluz]

Hi!

Its there a way I can set up a VoIP service for 15 rooms using a Wireless LAN? I'm thinking on using my local phoneline to receive incomming calls and then be able to transfer them to every VoIP phone using my LAN... just like having a phone switchboard, but from my local Phone to the VoIP phones. VoIP phones doesn't need to have access to the outside world.

Please help (or advise)...

Million Thanks!

Actually, I misstyped something. There are no 15 PC's but 15 rooms, each with its own VoIP phone (of course).

Basically, all your looking to do is have a wireless phone system, Right?
What features are you expecting to have by only utilizing VOIP internally?

So that all of the 15 rooms can comunicate with one main user. Its a small hotel. We can go with regular phone lines, but I was wondering if something can be done with VoIP. I just need people in the rooms "to talk to me and me to them".

Yes it is possible but very expensive. basically you have a voip system at main reception. allow 15 voip extensions which are connected to each room. In each room you would need a wireless network point with an ethernet connection. This connection is where you plug your ip phone into (there are no true wireless phones on the mkt yet, as far as i am aware). Every phone is programmed to route back to main switch. Costly but achievable.

No way, Regulluz, you could totally do this on the cheap.

Depends on what kinda phoneset you'd use, though. That part COULD get expensive, though you could use a totally FREE softphone, like one from sjlabs.com

then you could bind it all with a throw away 90mhz pentium box or something that's running redhat & asterisk, the open source ip pbx.

Basically, you'd probably spend more money on pizza and late-night chinese takeout while you're setting this all up than the actual system itself.
