Then why do you need a PRI? You can use a channel bank to convert to
PRI if you have DID's. There is a lot you can do to get calls into the
asterisk box. But if you feel you need the best reliability why use
asterisk. I don't feel it's 100% yet either. It's good, but now you
have another source of possible failure. No more or no less than
VOIP. I'm a service provider and yes we have failures once an awhile
but I can tell you in about a year or so that will be a thing of the
past. <br>

<pre wrap="">I may be able to help. I'm a provider in Southern CA. What you need to
do is eliminate all pots lines by moving them over to VOIP completely.
This will take some time but will save you a lot of money. Please call
me for more info. I can provide you service and if your interested
LNP your numbers. I would have to check. My number is 626-276-9009. If
90% of your calls are inbound you should not be paying much at all.

<pre wrap=""><!---->
voip just isn't reliable enough yet to get rid of land lines
completely. I feel comfortable using voip for outgoing calls, and
maybe 800 numbers we use for marketing campaigns, but we can't afford
to have our customer service lines down.
Plus, another issue is adequate bandwidth. If we go pure voip I doubt
our dsl would be enough (1792 down/448 up). Which means I'd have to
get a T1 or better for the office.
What I want is the flexibility and features * gives me, with the
reliability of land lines, and also the ability to interject voip into
the mix if and when it makes sense.
