I am about ready to setup our own routing system and hand-pick providers.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> We are specifically having problems with calls to France. Sometimes the calls take forever to terminate, and oddly, a couple providers seem to be connecting us with parties the caller swears they didn’t call. I chalked these up as misdialed numbers/user error for a while but we just get the complaint too much, I’m starting to wonder.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Anyway, any suggestions on how to achieve good quality, international VoIP termination would be helpful (suggested vendors, etc.). Our usage isn’t very high but will ramp soon.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks much,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Darren Schreiber<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
