How to install TS3 and join our server

First off you need to download the client if you don't already have it. You can grab it here:
http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads
You need the CLIENT, 32 or 64-bit depends on your version of windows. Do you have 32 or 64-bit windows? If you have no idea what I'm talking about grab the 32-bit version

Once downloaded follow the setup as you would with any other installer.

Once you've successfully installed the software fire it up and go to Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks or press Ctrl+B


This will open a new window. Right click in the window and select add new server. Proceed to fill in the server details and a username.


Once that's done right click the server name and click Connect or click Bookmarks in the Main window and click on the server name in the bookmarks list.

That's it! You can now hear people talking and if you have a microphone you can join in the conversation.


Joining TS3 from the website

If making a bookmark is too hard you can also connect to teamspeak from the portal (Once you have the TS3 client installed)
Just click on TeamSpeak in the menu and your browser will ask you if you wish to launch the application.


Once connected to the server you will have a default name like TeamSpeakUser. To change you name go to Self in the menubar and then Change Nickname. You can then proceed to type in a new name.


TeamSync

TeamSync is software that will automatically change your channel on teamspeak when you change team ingame on our server.
In order for it to work you need to be on our teamspeak in the TeamSync channel and on our server in BF3. It's a great tool for teamwork and the more people that are on it the better you can work together to defeat your enemy
