How To Install TeamSpeak Client on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

In this tutorial, we will show you how to install TeamSpeak Client on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. For those of you who didn’t know, TeamSpeak is a proprietary, cross-platform voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) application that is used for communication in online gaming, education, and business. Its main idea is to allow people to communicate on a channel, similar to other conferencing apps like Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, Slack, Microsoft Teams, etc. TeamSpeak allows users to communicate with each other using voice and text chat, and it includes a range of features, including support for multiple channels, file sharing, and voice activity detection.

This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the TeamSpeak voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) on Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish). You can follow the same instructions for Ubuntu 22.04 and any other Debian-based distribution like Linux Mint, Elementary OS, Pop!_OS, and more as well.

Prerequisites

• A server running one of the following operating systems: Ubuntu 22.04, 20.04, and any other Debian-based distribution like Linux Mint.
• It’s recommended that you use a fresh OS install to prevent any potential issues.
• An active internet connection. You’ll need an internet connection to download the necessary packages and dependencies for TeamSpeak.
• SSH access to the server (or just open Terminal if you’re on a desktop).
• A non-root sudo user or access to the root user. We recommend acting as a non-root sudo user, however, as you can harm your system if you’re not careful when acting as the root.
