Matt, who do you know down here ? Gino A. Villarini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Aeronet Wireless Broadband Corp. tel 787.273.4143 fax 787.273.4145 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matt Liotta Sent: Saturday, July 15, 2006 8:53 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] New WISPA Vendor Member
I always find it suspect when I see statements that don't name names. Who is this WISP in PR? I know of two WISPs in PR and neither have said they have a relationship with this company. I'd certainly be interested in knowing who this WISP is in Tampa that is supposedly expanding into Atlanta. As far as I know, Rapid Systems is the only interesting WISP in Tampa and Dustin never mentioned this company when I was recently discussing VoIP with him. Anyway, my position remains that operators should not enter into private label agreements with VoIP providers. Almost all of these companies operate over the internet, which means QoS can't be ensured. Further, if the VoIP provider has problems, the operator in question can't fix them since they have no control over the service. I believe if an operator wants to sell VoIP service to their customers then the operator should run their own voice switch. That voice switch can be connected to any number of wholesale termination and origination providers to enable the service. Should there be a problem with a voice upstream then that operator can simply use someone else without their customers be effected. -Matt On Jul 15, 2006, at 8:28 AM, Gino A.
