Hi,

I’m looking a way to make or buy an intercom system between room in the same house. That works more or less like a Walkie-talkie but wired on the local LAN .

With the following “requirements”

  • only voice
  • push to talk ( do not need to dial )
  • broadcast the voice too all receiver
  • AC-powered
  • work on the local Lan (Ethernet)

If you know any device that does that or a clever way to DIY or even an android app (LAN only)
I’m all ears.

Thanks

    I’ve tried few android apps but none does what it claim

    • WiFi Walkie Talkie different channel on device, with no way to change them, voice do not pass.
    • two-way-walkie-talkie, voice do not transmit, and anyway not open-source apps
    • Zello PTT Walkie Talkie, do not work on LAN, not open-source.

    You could look into using esp32’s for it. There’s variants with copper ethernet and people have used them before to both act as voice assistant mics and to play back audio with Home Assistant. Real time stream audio reproduction might be too much for them but it’s worth a spelunk if anyone has already gotten close enough.
