<div>The easiest way to start with this type of service is go get a hub ds3 from xo or twtelecom. They sell the hubs per market and or nationwide. There is a point where it makes sense for you to do your own interconnects ect but not at a single ds3</div>

<div>
<div>This may fall under the stupid question category.. But where do you find reasonably priced transport for your PRI’s?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We’re a hosted Voip vendor so we typically have just ran over whatever ISP’s bandwidth we could find.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However more and more we’re asked to supply a PRI or SIP trunk to a customers location. I see other large providers in our area providing this service, and I assume that they must be getting a wholesale price from the ILEC (In our case ATT) on the transport..
But I’ve never made any headway with them.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How are these other companies providing PRI + bandwidth for $300-$450 per month? Is there a way to secure cheaper transport?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
