[asterisk-biz] Digium, Polycom, and Netxusa Cutting Us Out?!?

[Charles Vance]

Why can't you go with any one of a number of other broadband providers that will still give you the end to end service you need?  Bandwidth.com is one that comes to mind they offer decent pricing and end to end voip origination/termination and a 99.999 SLA to boot.There are others as well.  Also, Qos can be managed from within your router as long as you have a good reliable bandwidth connection.Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understood you to say that you were having problems with speakeasy since they wouldnt let you use Asterisk over their Voip channels. Im just saying there are many other combinations of sip trunking and voip transport out there. Aren't there? (BTW I didn't realize speakeasy would prohibit use of Asterisk on their network, maybe I misunderstood?)Ben Vance

Qualitatively?  Can you elaborate, please?

Any decent router and a 5 nine SLA from your telco is same same.

Out?!?
    
Here is why bother:
    
Speakeasy can provide QoS to its own PSTN termination point.
    
That is a key architectural feature.

Why bother? You can still get a good rate from speakeasy for
the DSL bandwidth and then just use some other voip provider such as
telasip or vitelity
