RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk, PBX, VoIP and PRI

[Andrew Brown]

This is similar what we are looking to do with our customers,  ISP providing VoIP with our * system to broadband customers.    Having trouble getting the Mysql to work on RedHat 9.0 atm for the billing. but would be interested in talking more and sharing experiences.     Hi everyone, I’m new to the list, so I apologize if this is a trite question.  We’re an ISP with a barely used PRI, and also currently use asterisk with POTS service on an audiocodes gateway.  We have a notion that we want to take on a new revenue stream, with our model being as such:   1)       Convert one of our PRIs into a two way voice/data bundle. 2)       Plug this PRI into a piece of equipment (AS5300?) which can terminate both PPP, *AND* feed our Asterisk system.  We’d transfer our POTS service over to the PRI and pick up the SIP signaling there. 3)       In the extended model, use this setup to resell VoIP to our business ISP clients.   Has anyone out there done this?  If so, is the AS5300 the right choice?  What caveats will I face?
