I really don't get what everyone is talking about. It's actually very simple.
Perhaps it's a MS and Apple thing?
I've been using linphone for years without problems.
I have people with no computer experience setting it up in about 30 mins with
some basic help.
What OS/Distro is everyone running. I did see lots of problems with most
ubuntus.

It seems that one needs to be skilled at computer programming to use
the Linphone interface successfully. That is my point here... I am not
a code savvy person. I just need an interface that allows me to make
phone calls. Once you start telling me that I have to troubleshoot the
code to make it work then I am lost. This is definitely not a
user-friendly application.
