MicroTelco uses gateways that are located throughout the world. It selects the one closest to your destination OR the carrier that your prefer to use.
Rates are set on a GLOBAL basis rather than higher just because you might be outside the USA.
http://www.quicknet.net and http://www.microtelco.com
The costs of bandwidth for the carrier side (where the call gets delivered) is prohibitive. AND many many users still are on various forms of dialup.
End result is that carriers don't support that format, usually, for VoIP services unless being paid for on a private network. BUT (!) the software and hardware do support G.711 AND the harwdare gives you echo cancellation, auto gain control, and telephone device integration.
You should educate yourself before swearing sir "Coward".
GnomeMeeting and the Openh323 stacks DO work through NATs and firewalls. Also if you use the H.245 Tunneling options it reduce the number of required ports. This is NO different than ANY other VoIP protocol.

GnomeMeeting + Quicknet gives you a great, proven, solution from outfits that (a) have their drivers in the linux kernel, (b) have been long term supporters and advocates of open source, (c) give you choices AND open source access to the technology.
You will not have the benefits of a DSP with a solution like that:
- PROVEN international connectivity
- DSP based echo cancellation
- Automatic gain control
- Internationally approved ringer
There's a reason companies liek net2phone , D3, Dialpad and Agilent chose to use Quicknet's hardware as their reference platforms..;-) Try it and see.
