Hello Dave,

You can put in your own servers or go to a Tier 1 carrier, BOTH of them CAN have down 
times.

How many numbers are you interested in taking here?

If your bill is over 10,000$ a month, then yes you can look into going to a Tier1 carrier, it will 
be better and cheaper.

Otherwise if you tell me what you need, maybe didx.net or another of our service can help 
you out.
