Today we’ll show you how to interconnect as many Asterisk servers as you like and make transparent calls between all of them at zero cost. Setup time is under 5 minutes per server.

What a difference a decade makes! We haven’t spent much time with Proxmox for well over a decade so we decided to experiment with a new server and the latest Proxmox 7.4 release to see how things have changed. And it was quite a surprise. Not only has the hardware footprint changed dramatically, but the Proxmox software itself is like a new animal. If you haven’t explored Proxmox lately, we would encourage you to give it a careful look before… Read More ›

When Incredible PBX was released, you may recall that we jettisoned reliance on FreePBX® repositories and adopted Clearly IP’s far superior repository setup for FreePBX module management. Most of you have never noticed… until today. As lady luck would have it, Sangoma recently released a buggy version of the User Control Panel (UCP) module which literally blows up when you next attempt to access UCP. One of the hidden beauties of Incredible PBX is that we now have version control… Read More ›

Until we bought a 15-inch Windows laptop with 20 gigs of RAM and a 1 terabyte NVMe SSD for under $500, we never would have considered such a computer an ideal virtual machine platform.
