What would be my best option to receive calls via VOIP. I would like to use it as an alternative number when my main number is busy. The solution is not that easy as in order for customer to be a free call DID=Direct Inward Dialing provider would need to be a local company, I think. Correct my anybody if I'm wrong. I'm located in Alberta Canada so my chases are even smaller. I've another incoming fax line, so I guess I could set it somehow as an alternative incoming line if my main line is busy. -- #Joseph

You could have your main number (PSTN) setup to call forward on busy to your VoIP number. If the VoIP number is long distance you will pick up the LD charges on your main number. Your customers would only need to know and call your main number.> I've another incoming fax line, so I guess I could set it somehow as an > alternative incoming line if my main line is busy. > > -- > #Joseph > _______________________________________________ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com > lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users > To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: > lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users >
