Server

The mumble server can be found at mumble.techinc.nl. Default port (64738), no password required.

Client

Download a client from the Mumble website and/or see the Installing Mumble guidelines. Also, this is not a next-next-finish-alldone type of software, you need to configure it properly before joining a meeting. Make sure to follow the setup and audio-tuning wizard and tweak as appropriate.

Optionally, you can create a self signed client certificate using Configure -> Certificate Wizard

Meetings

The mumble server can be used for meetings by any team or project.

If you want to join that meeting please check if your sound settings are ok - do not configure it in the channel please.

Also if you are "just listening" please mute yourself.

Join the password protected ALV channel

The ALV channel is password protected. If you were to try to join the channel (by right clicking on the channel, you'd notice the join option is grayed out). If you're a member of TechInc, you can request access to the channel from Board. You will either be invited, or given the password.

To get access to the channel once you've received the password, go to: Server -> Access Tokens. Press the Add button and enter the password you've received and press Ok. (Passwords are not case sensitive)

If you now right-click on the channel, you'll notice the join option is now available to you. --> Profit!

How to behave

If you want to participate in a meeting please consider the following:

  • Properly configure your client in advance
  • Use a headset, or at least earphones or non-open headphones instead.
  • Make sure you have push-to-talk configured. Protip:
    1. Push the button
    2. ... (Wait a second)
    3. Start talking
    4. Stop talking
    5. ... (Wait a second)
    6. Release the button
    7. Profit!
  • Make sure your surroundings are noise- and distraction-free environments
  • If you know you're not going to participate and just listen in: mute yourself
