Voice Over IP On Wireless Mesh

Posted by timothy on from the network-is-the-network dept.

infractor writes "ZDNet is reporting that the Linux based LocustWorld Mesh system now has SIP routing at every node. The LocustWorld boxes have been widely used in community broadband projects where DSL is not available, so successfully that they have been seen as a threat to next generation mobile networks. With the addition of VoIP support, these mesh networks can now compete with the telcos on voice as well as data services. More details here."

    How the hell can the Internet be free?! I have worked in the Internet industry for a long time (10+ years) and I know for a fact that circuits, routers, staff cost lots and lots of money. You know, another word for communist is thief... you want someone else to pay for your internet connection.
