[asterisk-users] Detect if cell phone or users
Hi List, I have sprint pcs cellular service and I discoverd thatI am able to send a text message to a landline. If I do I get an SMS from the saying I sent a text message to a landline. Then the landline that I sent a text message to gets a call with my message (text to speach). I was wondering if there was any way for me to detect if a number is a mobile phone or a landline. Is this something that only cellular providers can do or can I have asterisk do it (I asume I would need to create a patch). Thanks a lot.

How do you handle situations where a cellphone number has been ported to a land line/VoIP provide or vice versa? The phone number isn't a reliable indicator of provider or medium.-brandon On 8/29/06, Matt Riddell (IT) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-Hash: SHA1Dovid Bender wrote: Hi List, I have sprint pcs cellular service and I discoverd that I am able to send a text message to a landline.

I don't think there's any authority in North America that tells you whether a number is a cellular number. However, it's conceivable you could write a script to access information available on, for example, www.telcodata.us, and check the prefix-type for a given phone number. The prefix type for all known (to me) wireless numbers is, in fact, WIRELESS -- you can't pay too much attention to the company given on that site, as WLNP makes this information quite superfluous. Keep in mind that LNP in general will make this information much less reliable than it used to be before LNP -- it's now possible to take your landline to a cell-phone and vice versa, so bets are off when it comes to that.

You cant turn a cell number into a landline nor viceversa. Heck, most providers dont even like it when you install a gsm gateway to call your coworkers for free with the gateway. So here it's pretty simple to know wether a call is to landline or cell. -- Michiel van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x71C946BD Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users? ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
