Well, first of all the BeagleBoard-xM (which is what we use) is a 1GHz processor. I have a feeling you were looking at the BeagleBoard C3 or C4 (the old one). I have had good experience using 3G networks (both Sprint and Verizon) for ROIP use. It seems to work quite well. JIM WB6NIL

I'm looking to set up ACID on another machine. The machine will run 1 node (using DMK URI), which will be connected to only by iaxrpt. Its likely that the node will be simplex, although if a change to duplex would affect the answers it would be useful to know.
System requirements: I read a while ago that the minimum system requirements were Pentium III 866Mhz, and 512MbRAM. I've seen references to the use of Beagle board, which until recently (if I understand correctly) wouldn't have been a comparable spec. Is the above spec a minimum, or have people found say a 600Mhz processor adequate for this level of installation?
Network requirements: My use is generally temporary installs at remote locations. Broadband is often available, but for the locations where it isn't has anyone any experience of using 3G connections , or even GPRS (with an appropriate codec selected). I have experience of getting reliable 3G connections for 64k mp3 shoutcast broadcast feed streams, but not for ROIP use. I appreciate that reliability and latency will be degraded with a mobile connections.
Any experience much appreciated.
Regards
Nathan
