Subject: [VoiceOps] Carrier choices<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Alrighty all, I'm wondering whose been a successful, competent, reliable<BR>
provider in your opinion. I don't want to ramble on about any specific<BR>
company, but I have a gripe with one of my carriers.<BR>
<BR>
Currently I use Level3, Global and Verizon. Anyone have other reliable<BR>
providers who don't make full-blown equipment swapouts without change<BR>
management (reversion) plans during business hours ;)<BR>
<BR>
Difficult to find an all-inclusive list of carriers. I know about XO and<BR>
Qwest, but anyone else using a reliable peer I'm overlooking. Off-list<BR>
replies welcomed however, I wouldn't want to hear full-blown gripes.<BR>
I've had enough from clients this week due to one of my carriers and<BR>
their desire to yank/change equipment without 1) notifying us of a<BR>
change(potential outage) not reverting/resolving fast enough. So imagine<BR>
your entire VoIP ITSP infrastructure down the first time for 8+ hours,<BR>
only for the same carrier to come back and do the exact same thing<BR>
within 10 days for 9+ hours more. Yes sir/maam, I've had headaches this<BR>
week.<BR>
