is this related to the below request for a non-profit doing a telethon?
If it is I am confused by it.

If it isnt, I am unsure what ticket system you refer to. Additionally I
am unsure what your setup is since you havent even provided more
information. Odds are the equipment that is supposed to do the failover
isnt even asterisk. Further I do not think that its a business list
question (unless you are asking for a consultant to fix your problem
with failover).

Or was this supposed to be a private email to someone at supertec that
you posted to a public mailing list?

Re: [asterisk-biz] Can anyone transfer a Canadian number

That would depend on where the number went "back" to.

Underlying carrier? Pooling? Another level of ITSP resale?

Number block ownership and routing is assigned. Carriers can't just
pick a number and start providing it. Kind of like IP addresses and BGP.

Re: [asterisk-biz] Nonprofit Org Who Helps Families Telethon

Can you look at ticket # 702556000194?

This is very simple:

Asterisk is down, I am simulating that with the command "stop now,"
Calls should then go to the failover SIP address, but they do not.

I have been back and forth for weeks with your support and they do not
figure it out. I am not even sure they understand what I am saying.

even if it can be ported it may still be difficult, the provider you had
is probably the only one that knows you were the customer, and their
upstream may not let it be ported since they cant verify you were the
customer. No harm in trying though.

This also brings up an interesting topic, especially since its more
likely that the more discount providers are going to have financial
troubles. Contingency plans for porting numbers and assuring your
telephony gear remains functional. Ideas from others on this subject
(and minor thread jack :) may be helpful to other people on the list.

[asterisk-biz] Can anyone transfer a Canadian number

I had a number with a Canadian provider, hitcalls.com and after they
went out of business, we lost the number. Can anyone get hold of it and
provider it to us? The area code is 416.

[asterisk-biz] Bulk Origination (US DIDs with API & T38)

Hello -

*Happy New Year '09. Telecommunications will the bubble in 2009. Lets be a part of it.*

We currently have more than 2000 DIDs and pay ~25c per month with little origination fee. However, the carrier does not provide API and we require API for dynamic allocation.

Voxbone is OK but I dislike their channels yada yada.

Do you recommend someone reliable? We are not looking for small companies but would love to do business with someone big. The volumes are not very big to start with Level3.

Thanks.

Ok,

I guess that was bound to happen at some time.
