[asterisk-users] Sending SMS from asterisk

[bilal ghayyad]

Dears;

"We have running here a SMS solution with four 3G dongles, which sends over 20.000 SMS a month."

What are the elements of this solution? Is it only: 3G dongles and chan_dongle only? Or there are something else?

About the script that you wrot it: 

This script is using asterisk (through AMI) to send the SMS? Or it is working without need for asterisk? In this case, where is the benifit of using Asterisk to send the SMS?

Regarding to Sangoma and khomp: Do u mean that they have something like Huwewi 3G dongles?

Regards
Bilal
