[WISPA] Canopy Site, off-power-grid

Need to install a short tower as a relay on a mountaintop, no power within 3/4 mile. Anyone done battery / generator sites with one Canopy AP, one Canopy SM and a router, like Mikrotik in between ? This is in NJ, not too good an environment for solar I imagine, although we'll be on a real

The * box would provide the all the roll over services needed for actual POTS line that has no options via the local ILEC/CLEC. Then the other true VoIP lines in the * box could/would service all the outgoing calls. Example: Current VIP POTS line rings - the * box shuffles that call to a VoIP

The fact that you may not be able to port that particular number shouldnt be a problem. I would never take 100% of the POTS lines out of any business any way. Roll that important number into the * box as an inbound line only and have it roll over the calls to the VoIP lines. It would never do an

the problem is, Johnny's in an area where his local C.O. isn't tapped by the major LNP-able VOIP or Voice guys. No one, and I've looked and spoken to many, has 337-774 portable... JohnnyO wrote: Ok - #1 - This customer has had the same phone # at this location for 20+ years - They do ove
