<div>Just out of curiosity, what country are you in?</div><div><br></div><div>I agree with the others in this thread, this seems very bizzare that the telco requires you to do SS7 for dialup connections. I would ask them for specifics about the "legal" issues with what you are doing - it sounds to me like they are just trying to upsell you on a more expensive product.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I am in Canada and we run exactly the configuration you are currently doing... we still have dialup internet customers that dial into AS5300's via PRI's. Our telco has a PRI product gear specifically for this use... they call it 'ISP-PRI' I'm not entirely sure what the restriction is on it.... I have also just kind of assumed that it is inbound calls only, but I've never tried making outbound calls on them. I do know they 25-30% cheaper than our regular voice PRIs though.</div>

Hello,<br><br>We are working on implementing a solution for a medium service provider. They were previously using a Cisco AS5300 gateway with some PRI trunks to receive modem calls, then route them out the Internet.<br><br>
The Telco they were buying the trunks to discovered this configuration and restricted them due to legal conventions, and stated that in order to continue doing this, they would have to talk SS7 directly.<br><br></blockquote>
