View Full Version : Teamspeak over telephone?

OK, I know this'll sound NUTS but here goes - lol...

I live in a remote log cabin and I play an MMORPG (Puzzle Pirates) that is of a sort that actually works on the Satellite internet I have to use up here.

Obviously, TS doesn't work so swell - lol - I can HEAR just great, but I can't talk (though I sneezed once and everyone said "Bless you" - lol - just short enough to get through over a couple of seconds, I guess.)

The crew that I'm on does these massive confusing things called blockades that require teamspeak to coordinate, and they want me to be a deck officer. We tried it once with me typing and them talking, but it's obviously less than optimal. I wanted to give that particular task up, but they still want me to do it, TS or no.

So I was wondering - can someone think of a way to hook up a telephone to a TS client in another location? I have 2.9 cent per minute long distance, and friends in cities with decent connections...I was trying to figure out a way to have THEM log onto Teamspeak, me call them, and route the input/output from the phone through the computer.

I know it sounds wacky, but it's the only thing I can think of, barring selling the cabin and moving back to the city - lol

(And if I DID live in town, I'd figure out a subscription service to do this - noted all the satellite/dial-up/slow connection posts in the forum - rofl!)

Thanks, if anyone has any idea at all :)

You can try calling someone that has skype and if set up correctly you can have TS pickup on what is being said on skype, as input for TS.

I know skype has a service that you can tie a phone number to it for a price. Only way that I can think of right now.

Do you have any idea of the correct setup? The peeps I'm talkin' about would probably be willing to GET Skype if that's what it took. (And Skype was what initially made me think of this.)

How would you interface Skype input to TS?

Kind of like you would do for music. You call that skype and when you talk the output can be used for TS input.

For playing music.
