<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>IIRC, We save something like $40 per month per span
on our PRI's & $3 per month per line by opting out of CNAM.
When a call comes in we populate it ourselves using a quick HTTP GET.

(name) - where does it come from?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Folks, having an issue with outbound calls through a VOIP
provider. Calls get sent out with the CallerID(number), but where does
callerID(name) come from? Apparently not from provider, as we are seeing
different (sometime missing) names on inbound calls, different than what we
have configured. Apparently this comes from some telco database somewhere?
Numbers were ported from a wired-telco.<BR><BR><BR clear=all><BR>-- <BR>Barry
