I just got into VOIP and it's very nice.
I want a "business phone" on my desk, to connect to a SIP service.
What is one that allows me to configure it (SIP and stuff) through any browser? like the ATA i have i just go to it's ip in my browser.
are the cisco unified phones requiring some base station or something similar? can i just do it through a browser?
Do you wanna skype?
naw i just want a cheap used ip phone so i can call people
also, something that can be powered without any special PoE required
my best advice for you then is find some friends or family and have them ask their IT department if they have an old phone that they would want to give instead of throw away. Usually departments have some spare outdated shit.
Otherwise, you are going to pay a lot for a business phone with the options you want. Businesses usually get jewed because "it's the business paying for it" mentality.
Setup a Asterisk PBX (foss) on a Odroid and run ethernet ports to every room.
Polycom VVX411 or similar stuff.
These phones are designed for that stuff
oh, then just some plain old Siemens Octophone stuff
is there any SIP cisco that can be simple and not require a special PoE?

LOL - VoIP very nice. That's a good one. I can tell you're new, and don't do much with it.
I am going to give you some advice - always reboot the phone as the first step. Do this long enough to get a grasp on the technologies involved - then get the fuck out.
VoIP is a fucking shit show.
