We feel like a kid in a candy store with our new $35 Raspberry Pi® Model B. Imagine squeezing a 700 mHz ARM processor with 512MB of RAM, 2 USB ports, a 10/100 Ethernet port, an HDMI port, composite video, a separate audio jack, an SDHC card slot, and a micro USB port onto a motherboard the size of a credit card with a total weight of 1.6 ounces and a typical power draw of 3.5 watts. Thanks to Gernot… Read More ›

We’ve spent the last couple months perfecting Incredible PBX™ as a full-featured VoIP platform for deployment on the $35 Raspberry Pi®. And, with the recent addition of 512MB RAM on the main system board, the Raspberry Pi not only is a great platform for home or SOHO use, but now it’s an ideal server for remote deployment in organizations with small satellite offices scattered around the countryside or for those with a loved one stationed in a faraway place. It’s… Read More ›

We’ve just returned from AstriCon 2012 in Atlanta. What a show! Not only were the exhibits plentiful and eye-opening for the breadth of coverage that Asterisk® has garnered, but the dozens of sessions on virtually every facet of Asterisk were first-class. If you haven’t been, I would encourage you to clear your calendar for a few days next October. Mark Spencer was a proud papa as, indeed, he should be. There’s been a good bit of turnover at Digium® in… Read More ›

PBX in a Flash™ has a long (safe) history in the VoIP community, and the major reason is that we constantly preach never directly exposing any ports on your Asterisk® server to the Internet without implementing a WhiteList of safe IP addresses. This Zero Internet Footprint™ design keeps everybody out except a trusted, defined group on your WhiteList. For everyone else, they never see your server. So how do you receive calls? You do it with phone numbers (DIDs) tied… Read More ›

We often tell the tale of the early Asterisk@Home days when almost every server was configured with no firewall, unlimited web access, and a 201 extension with a password of either 201 or 1234. What could possibly go wrong? Remember this Monday morning newspaper headline? "Small business gets $120,000 phone bill after hackers attack VoIP phone." News.com.au ran this story back in 2009: "Criminals hacked into an Internet phone system and used it to make 11,000 international calls in just… Read More ›

If you had asked us a year ago whether it was possible to run a full-featured PBX on a computer the size of a credit card, we would have laughed and told you to move along. Well, that was then. In the last 21 days, we’ve not only gotten through the proof-of-concept phase of porting Incredible PBX to the Raspberry Pi but, thanks to a lot of hard work from Gernot and his Asterisk® for Raspberry Pi™ project, we now… Read More ›
