[Asterisk-Users] Vonage, broadvoice et al
Hi all, I'm just wondering about these VoIP services -- do you have to sign up one account -per- client that will be using the service? I've got multiple extensions behind my Asterisk box, and I want to be able to allow all my staff to place calls via the provider. So if I sign up for one account, will multiple users behind my Asterisk box be able to make calls, using that same account, at the same time? Or do these providers typically only allow one call to be in place at any point in time? Thanks in advance.

Vonage, to my knowledge, does not let you connect your own SIP device to their service. They provide their own IAD. As for Broadvoice, I know people that have successfully deployed asterisk with many people sharing the same account. - Pedro On Fri, 18 Feb 2005 17:54:38 +0800, el Flynn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I'm just wondering about these VoIP services -- do you have to sign up one account -per- client that will be using the service?

With unlimited calling plans you need to read the terms of service. Sharing the account within a household or business usually fits in with that. Reselling services in any way is usually prohibited. Some providers with unlimited plans will allow you to set the outbound caller ID to any number on the account. In cases where they only put unlimited plans on an ATA, you can still connect that to * with an fxo card. Most of the providers have various hunt and multi=ring options that you can configure via their web interface. One thing I have run into with 2 providers is their current inability to have multiple SIP/IAX logins within the same account. If I might want to someday have the California DID's land on a server at the California office, I have to create a new account when I order them. Otherwise, all DID's go to the last server that registered with the provider. It's a nuisance because I have to do the entire new account creation process with the provider for each DID and then wind up with different web interface logins for each.

Hello! When you say sharing the account do you mean multiple simultaneous outgoing calls or just whoever picks up the phone and get's a dialtone can make the call? -Randy Paul wrote: With unlimited calling plans you need to read the terms of service.
