[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk International Carrier Buildout - Create our own International networks for BEST pricing!
Asterisk Users, I am reposting to the Asterisk-Users list what I saw on the Asterisk-Biz list by Mr. Jeff Grammer, GOD BLESS HIM! I am in the Hamptons today, trying to whew a client, and he took a look at my Level3 Partner pricing, and laughed, as his rates were better than mine!!! To top that off, I am colocated within the Level3 datacenter, he has no computers, and gets better rates. So, Mr. Grammer, (read his below post to Asterisk-biz), hit the nail right on the head, when he posted that we should start our OWN Asterisk International Carriers buildout as we can CREATE better pricing for OURSELVES, as opposed to all the others.... Please provide insights, directions as to EXACTLY how we can attain, using Asterisk, our own International Networks. I am interested in placing Asterisk boxes in South America, India, and other places. When the call comes into my Asterisk box in Chicago, and the caller wants Mexico or India, I shoot the call directly to the my other Asterisk boxes in those respective countries. But we would still have to make arrangements, (Correct me if I am wrong), to have the call carried over the local telecom network in that respective country. Or switched to TDM for PSTN landlines. Please someone assist as this can be done. We need better pricing, and must create that ourselves.

To: "'Commercial and Business-Oriented Asterisk Discussion'" <asterisk-biz@lists.digium.com> Message-ID: <20050715210448.HMGK3975.ibm66aec.bellsouth.net@cygnus> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" First, if this is the wrong mail list, please ignore this post. I have built my own Asterisk server and would like to participate in any sort of nationwide effort to build an alternative to LD carriers. I only have a couple of B1 (1FB) lines to use right now, but if I could learn how to make money terminating my Asterisk server in a network of other Asterisk servers I could upgrade to a PRI and provide access to my local calling area bypassing the LD carriers. But honestly, I don't know where to start. (or even really how to make money doing that) Is there a list of US freely accessible IAX servers anywhere that I could look to join as part of their network?
