Re: [asterisk-biz] Setting up a VOIP Provider

Lane,

I would suggest working with an established provider like Teliax and becoming a reseller. Concentrate on making your money on installs and support of your customers and choose to work with a reputable ITSP.

https://www.teliax.com/pages/AGENT    Take a look at our plan and see if it meets your goals. We work with a number of companies that provide the local support and management of their customers and do quite well.

I hope my biased input helps.

Thanks,

Geoff

Hello everyone,

 

I love reading all the posts here and have learned tons in the last few months. I have successfully setup 2 dealerships with Asterisks and am on my 3^rd. I wanted to ask this question for information purposes so I can see everyone's view on the subject.

 

I have a buddy with an ISP that provides me with SIP service through his upstream provider. Problem is he is slow (VERY SLOW) and so far the support sucks. I ordered a few 800 numbers months ago and still don't have them, my caller id still does not work since he setup the account.

 

My question is this: How hard is it to setup a VOIP provider to the people here in my area since the competition sucks?!?!?

 

The obvious next question is costs involved. I understand setting up a system like Vonage etc. is HIGH dollar but what about a smaller setup?

 

Thanks in advance and I look forward to the reading material,

 

Lane
