On the subject of South Africa
What are the laws regarding using the Internet to carry telephone traffic?
Its 100% against the law, Telcom have the monopoly there still that requires ALL voice trafic to go via the Telcom network.. The Mobile phone operators there are in constant battles with them to tru and ease this so they can do some leased cost routing but they are not getting very far..
What are the laws regarding connecting digium kit to Telkom equipment?
It should be fine, AFAIK they relaxed the rules about connecting third party equipment to their network a few years ago..
As I recall they are quite restrictive, have they been eased up a bit?
Nope, and I don't see that they plan to ease up at all any time soon.. Which is why we scrapped the plans we had for setting up some of our facilities there.. We even had meetings with the DTI to see if they could put pressure on Telkom but seeing as the govenment own a majority share holding in Telkom why would they want to..
Later..
