I was throwing around the idea, a year or so ago, of hosting my own BBS for absolutely no reason other than I could.  But to keep costs down, I wanted to use VoIP lines instead of land lines.  I thought (at the time) that at 2400 baud, maybe a voip line would work.  Well, I never did get a voip line to work, not even at 300bps.  If you were able to make VoIP work, I'd be very interested in how you did it, if you're willing to share -- feel free to email me directly if that's the case.  And of course, if anyone else on this list is a VoIP wizard…

VoIP for dialup works fine, I’m using it for my BBS. People have been able to connect at 33.6k bps no problem. I’ve even got a video with a demo:
