SS7 Landscape
by voiceops＠ics-il.net Oct. 24, 2023

Oct. 24, 2023

We currently get our SS7 via TNS. I (maybe incorrectly) understand them to be a big dog in that space. I've had two major problems with them in six months. What are my alternatives? Are they less pleasant? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com

Porting dept. contacts
by nathana＠fsr.com Jan. 31, 2023

Jan. 31, 2023

Hey all, As someone who still relies wholly on CLEC partners for TDM-to-IP & numbering resources, and thus has no access to NPAC, how would one hunt down contact information for a telecom's porting department, if it was not published anywhere on their public web site? Rumor has it that NPAC has a list of contact info for all participating entities...is that the only centralized list of its kind? Also, would any telecoms without their own numbering resources be listed in there? Reason for question is that we are beating our head into a brick wall trying to port some numbers currently attached to analog landlines over for a new sub. The billing entity seems to just be a reseller as far as I can tell, as LRN lookup for all numbers show the local ILEC, and I can't find any sign that this entity has any numbers or even an OCN to their name (though I also do not have copy of LERG to check, either). Porting dept. for winning carrier is submitting LSR to the ILEC, not the reseller, and naturally getting a slew of rejections back. The one contact that the end-user has for this reseller has not been super-helpful. They insist that the winning carrier needs to "reach out to [our] port team to coordinate" but when I ask for contact details, I'm told he doesn't have them to share & that the "porting department of the new carrier should be aware of the process". Oh really? And how exactly are they supposed to find the contact information for your ports people? Just in case (as I suspect) they don't already have it at their fingertips, I'd like to find and share this contact info with our underlying carrier in order to help grease the wheels and avoid any further delays. Thanks, -- Nathan

Brazil VoIP DIDs with SMS (one- or two-way)
by beckman＠angryox.com Jan. 23, 2023

Jan. 23, 2023

Looking for a wholesale (or any really) vendor who offers Brazil numbers with SMS, either inbound-only or inbound and outbound, for individual (P2P) purposes, and delivers incoming calls via SIP. - DIDWW offers Brazil DIDs, but no SMS. - Bandwidth/Voxbone offers Brazil DIDs, but no SMS. - DIDlogic offers Brazil, no SMS it looks like, plus $250/month minimum - Twilio offers Brazil but no SMS. There seems to be a bunch of B2C or B2B companies offering Brazil Mobile Virtual Numbers with SMS, but none in the wholesale circles I'm aware of. I appreciate any leads or suggestions or recommendations (or education on why this is hard to find!).

Issues to T-Mobile
by dovid＠telecurve.com Jan. 11, 2023

Jan. 11, 2023

Hi All, We are a small ITSP and every so often we have issues with calls that go to T-Mobile. We sign all our calls with our cert. Lately we have been getting 404's, 608's etc through 382, Telnyx and SIPRoutes. Bandwidth has been worse than the rest as they don't outright reject calls but they send a 100 trying and leave us hanging for 30 seconds. Peerless and one other carrier are completing the calls. Anyone know what makes T-Moble special that so many carriers will just 404 calls to their network? TIA. Dovid
