Just out of curiosity, what country are you in? I agree with the others in this thread, this seems very bizzare that the telco requires you to do SS7 for dialup connections. I would ask them for specifics about the "legal" issues with what you are doing - it sounds to me like they are just trying to upsell you on a more expensive product.
I am in Canada and we run exactly the configuration you are currently doing... we still have dialup internet customers that dial into AS5300's via PRI's. Our telco has a PRI product gear specifically for this use... they call it 'ISP-PRI' I'm not entirely sure what the restriction is on it.... I have also just kind of assumed that it is inbound calls only, but I've never tried making outbound calls on them. I do know they 25-30% cheaper than our regular voice PRIs though. -- Matt 2010/11/24 José Pablo Méndez Soto <[email protected]> > Hello, > > We are working on implementing a solution for a medium service provider. > They were previously using a Cisco AS5300 gateway with some PRI trunks to > receive modem calls, then route them out the Internet. > > The Telco they were buying the trunks to discovered this configuration and > restricted them due to legal conventions, and stated that in order to > continue doing this, they would have to talk SS7 directly. > >
