Update from Key International Carrier Hotels (1 of 5)

Posted on March 7th, 2010 by admin in telecom providers | No Comments »

Carrier hotels provide a secure location for the interconnection of telecom networks. Traditional carriers, wireless providers, cable/ MSOs, content providers and enterprises rely on these facilities to expand the scope of their networks through interconnection. Carrier hotel value is directly derived from the occupants and the location relative to key demand points. Part 1 of 5.

Key discussion points include:

* How is the role of the carrier hotel changing with facilitation of enhanced services within its facilities?
* How is the proliferation web enabled content changing demand for carrier hotel space?
* As carrier hotels within major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, and London fill up, what are carrier hotel providers doing to satisfy growing demand in a world of limited capacity?

Rehan Allahwala and Greg Vance Discuss Empowerment of Asterisk

Posted on February 26th, 2010 by admin in telecom providers | No Comments »

This was actually the second half of a conversation that drifted from Asterisk education to the concept of DIDX and the further telecom empowerment around the world. The Philippines, Middle East and Africa are examples of areas where telcos or voip companies are already using Digium hardware, have a soft switch, and they have spare DID (direct inward dialing) phone numbers that instead of sitting around not making money, they can be made available on DIDX.

And ah, yes, we’d love to have a poster showing that DIDX won the Digium Service Provider Innovator award the first year this was available in 2007.

Thank you so much, Greg, for your words to Rehan, “I can’t imagine anybody that has done more for developing Asterisk opportunities as you have. What you’re talking about in sharing global DIDs is really enhancing the whole community side. Asterisk is obviously a good source and we want to bring as many people into that ecosystem as into the whole strategy in how to share ideas and how do we communicate. Really the whole idea of Asterisk is not necessarily a piece of hardware but it’s the communicating around the world. I’d like to say there is 99% of the world has an Asterisk server somewhere because it … has allowed people to become telecom providers when before, they were not able to because of the expense, because of their location… and now anybody with a little technical knowledge can become a part of that global community. So I applaud DIDX and the things that you’ve done to help pave the way for that. Thank you, Rehan.”

Rehan responds with examples of voice costs ten years ago to now and gives much credit where anyone would … to Mark Spencer and those who have stuck behind the Asterisk community. In fact, it may be easier today to open a telephony company than a bakery.

Greg and Rehan were in the press room where http://www.didx.net was a media partner and press agent

Can a unlocked iPhone work in multiple countries?

Posted on February 20th, 2010 by admin in telecom providers | 2 Comments »

I’m planing to buy an iPhone, I’m currently in Canada. The only problem is I’m moving back to New Zealand in December. So I want to know if its possible to make it work on Rogers AND when I get back for it to work on the New zealand prvoiders(Vodaphone and Telecom). I heard that you can unlock it and then it can work on all providers but would this be true if I take it to another country and use its proviers?
Thanks

Yes. You need to unlock it. Once unlocked, you can put in any SIM card from any carrier around the world. Of course, you will need a SIM card from New Zealand’s native carrier and one from Canada, and switch them back and forth accordingly.

How to you send a text message through email?

Posted on February 18th, 2010 by admin in telecom providers | 2 Comments »

I have a friend who I want to text, but I want to do it through e-mail because it is easier. My friend’s provider is Global Telecom. Do anyone know how I can email them a text message? Thank you!

The person that said you cant is mistaking. You can send the text but you would first need the web address for his cellular service. For example T Mobile is 123456789@tmomail.net. Goes from my e mail to his phone and visa versa.Try having your friend send an text to your e mail address and then you will have his return address and can add to your address book. You can also send text via yahoo messenger through SMS messaging directly to his phone number.

What is wrong with my Orange Broadband connection?

Posted on February 14th, 2010 by admin in telecom providers | 5 Comments »

My connection has been awful as of late. To connect I have to take my phone off the hook, then when it connects all you hear from the phone is the sound a fax machine makes. I contacted my phone provider (British Telecom) and they say they’ve done a diognostic check and there is nothing wrong with the phone line. I have bought brand new filters for the Speedtouch modem I use, so that can’t be the problem.
I have been with Freeserve/Wanadoo/Orange since 2002 and never had any trouble until Orange bought out Wanadoo.
Any Ideas?
Is my 5 year old modem burning out? Should I dump my provider or could it be a problem with the phone line?

Check with your provider, and see if there are any other numbers you can use to get onto the internet. When I had dial-up, my provider had seven numbers that you could use. Maybe a different number will help. Sometimes if you change the number, you will get a better connection. My isp had the numbers posted on their website..Good Luck..

As this video shows, the original telephone operators were not women but they were soon replaced by women. In effect, the new technology created an occupation for women.
