What is TeamSpeak?
TeamSpeak is an application which
allows its users to talk to each other
over the internet and basically was
designed to run in the background
of online games. The voice quality
and hereby the bandwidth usage is
configurable and can be low for modem
users or as good as normal phone calls
for better connections. Still the
client's maximum bandwidth won't exceed
25.9 KBit/s (=3.3 KB/s) upstream.
Also TeamSpeak uses as little latency
as possible, which makes TeamSpeak
one of the best online gaming communication
programs.
TeamSpeak has a lot more features
than these basics, but even unexperienced
users don't have to be scared. As
TeamSpeak is divided into a server
and a client application, advanced
users can set up a TeamSpeak server,
which is so to say the meeting point
for the clients. This means that beginners
can just fire up the client, connect
to a server and talk to their friends.
