You know, now I am curious as to the mechanics of this. Anyone can buy a
Quicknet Linkjack or phonejack card (and download the free driver). Anyone
can download the openh323 software, build it and use it. What are the
"mechanics" of say ME doing this and just using the net2phone and dialpad
servers? It appears that the card handles the data transactions with the
servers. Does it require one to be registered with BOTH net2phone and
dialpad? Or does it just do its thing, using the servers as one "uses"
routers on the internet without need of registration?
So, say I buy a linkjack. I already have the openh323 software. I just fire
up the software and away I go? It may not be necessary to get explicit
permission to use the net2phone and dialpad servers anymore than you need
permission to go through routers, etc.
