Ok -
#1 - This customer has had the same phone # at this location for 20+ years - They do over 17million per year in volume out of this location. It's a fuel dock. They rely heavily on inbound calls for generating this.
#2 - The customer will not change their phone # - This is NOT an option
#3 - This company does a total of 90+ million / year in revenue and as their internet provider - I will not chance losing their accounts.
#4 - I think it's absolutely stupid and a waste of time for them to have to dial 337-774-xxxx to be able to call the same number by dialing 774-xxxx. I know that this can be worked around with the dialing features.
I have no issues with an asterisk solution - I have the equipment on-hand and am currently working with Butch Evans to get this setup. At this point in time - The only thing I can do is to bring in POTS lines to make this work so we can terminate their phone #s at our office.
I am looking for an out of the box appliance that will do this as well. I have other clients wanting to come onboard for the hosted PBX aspects and VoIP advantages also.

Johnny, Im a little confused as to why you do not think this is doable. Send me the specific needs for the client and I think we can make this happen. You do have wireless to all of these clients right? BTW, What do you have against an Asterisk solution?

Mac - as I stated - None of these #s are local. Which means their office 7 miles away would have to dial long distance to get their location in the same 337-774 - FYI - we still have 7 digit dialing in our area.
This is not just a matter of setting up VoIP - this customer has specific needs and I have to fill them. We're rolling out a beta for them at one of their small locations and if all goes well - I will be able to capture all of their locations - They employ 100+ people and currently have a total of 64 lines combined across all of their locations.

Just send me a connection fee and I will take care of the rest of it :-)
How many lines, whats the area code and how fast do you need them? With 911 of course.

Subject: [WISPA] VoIP/PBX Gateway appliance
I am looking for a appliance/device that will work as a VoIP Gateway/PBX for 4-8 POTS lines. I am not looking for an Asterisk solution but seeking out a plug and play appliance for under $2k or less.
I cannot get a PRI in my area - I cannot get a ISDN BRI in my area either - The only option I have is POTS lines which I can get for $23.00/mo each.
I must have local services due to this being on a shipping channel and 911 is very critical.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
JohnnyO
