Phone service in multiple states

I am setting up 2 branch offices in another state.  Each office is relatively small, with about 10 users in each.  I would like to know the best way to provide phone service to these users.  Each site has a VPN back to us for their data but are on their own phone system.  We would like to deploy Cisco phones to these offices that we can manage.  We use Cisco Call Manager 8.6 at our HQ.  My concerns are how to handle local calls and 911 emergency services.  Currently we have several PRIs through AT&T.  Can AT&T read the calling party number and route the call to the appropriate PSAP regardless of which state the call originates from or what path it took to get to the PSTN?  Same thing with local calls.  Will it still be a local call if it has to go through another state before it reaches the PSTN?  I've considered setting up Call Manager Express at these sites to get around these issues and I would appreciate any hardware recommendations for these sites.   

As far as i know PRIs will not be able to route calls based on ANI and route it to the PSAP but I *think* there is a SIP service that ATT provides that does this. Else you might have to look at putting a small router with 1 or 2 analog lines just for 911 (and SRST if needed). A 2901V/K9 bundle with FXO ports should help you with this.

  • If phone service is disconnected can the iphone still connect to internet through wifi?

  • Follow Up To Verizon Leaves Me Without Phone Service

    My intial thread seems to be closed. The problem was moved up the chain and in the end here is what I learned. I no longer have a dial tone because my area was upgraded to Fios, this was the info I got during my call to Verizon. So my phone service was shut off without warning. I asked to have my service cancelled so I am no longer charged and the call was then transferred to India where I couldn't understand the person, probably because I have to now use a cell phone. So I am still being charged by Verizon for a service they disconnected. I can't believe this is legal so I filed a complaint with the Attorney General in my state.

  • HT204053 Can I set up icloud services on multiple iphones under a single account? More specifically, can I use- find my iphone services -under one account?

    Can I use Find My iphone service with multiple iphones under one account? I have 4 iphones in my family and I want to monitor all phones by logging into one account!

    You can create and use different iCloud accounts on the same computer, whether they are single or multiple user.
    There is a limit of 3 accounts you can create from a device but I thought this was only iOS devices - maybe not.
    iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address, so I guess I'd start there to retrace what accounts you have.
    My Apple ID and iForgot.com may be useful sites for you.

  • Implementation of IP phone services

    Hi,
    I want to implement some IP phone services like weather.I use CCM5.
    in the first time, I installed CiscoIPPS_SDK_V4[1].1.1 in which i found for this service in C:/CiscoIPServices/ASP/weather 4 codes. after that, I added this service in CCM5 in which i specified this URL:
    http://localhost:81/CiscoIPServices/weather/ASP/weatherzipinput.asp?name=#DEVICENAME#
    my IIS is declared in port 81.
    when opening this service with IP phone it displayed:
    Authorization required!
    UserName:
    password:
    Real:tr>
    <head>
    <style>
    please, im waiting for your help
    thank you in advance
    salima

    I've looked into the weather.asp code and I found that the URLs used to get the zip code from state and city and the one used to get the weather info based on the zip code are both not valid.
    I've found these two valid urls, but you'll have to change the weather.asp code to make it parse correctly the new pages:
    Weather forecast based on zip code :
    http://www.weather.com/weather/wxdetail/
    Zip code lookup based on city/state :
    http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/zcl_1_results.jsp?visited=0&pagenumber=0&city=&state=
    terms within <> are the parameters to pass to the services.
    HTH,
    Alberto

  • What do you suggest for phone service provider?

    I think many of the SW users (including myself) will be jealous of your Google Fiber! :)An easy transition would be to look at a BYOB hosted voice provider. The good news is that there are hundreds to choose from, the bad news is that there are hundreds to choose from!
    You don't mention how many phones you have, but the beauty of hosted voice is that you can start with 1 line and scale as you need. Many plans include new, free phones as well as unlimited usage, all for a monthly fee. Most hosted providers share similar feature sets (IM/Chat/Presence, Reporting, VM to Email, IVR etc), but making a suggestion will require a little more digging on your current environment and planned growth, as well as your (and management) expectations/requirements.Happy to help, PM me with the details and I can help guide you and bring you multiple good...

    We are in Kansas City and Google Fiber is so prominent and we are switching from Time Warner where phone service is free with the internet and services;  Google Fiber does not have phone service and I am not ready for my business line to be on a mobile phone!  There was the Magic Jack that came out that runs off internet through the computer or router;  What is out there now?  What does anyone suggest?

  • Backup Assistant Service Failed - Sync state not supported by this operation

    I have a Samsung Stratosphere running Gingerbread 2.3.5.  Recently I tried to use the Backup Assistant app and it gave me the error message:
    Service Failed
    Sync state not supported by this operation
    How do I get it to work again?  I can't think of anything that could have caused this.  It worked when I first got the phone.

    I clicked on "backup my contacts" and they backed up--I see them.  Here is
    the strange thing:  the first person to get back to me told me to disable
    the app since it didn't work well with Android.  I did that.  Two days
    later, it started to back up.  Huh?????  Seems like it is inconsistent.
    So, do I just wait until it doesn't work again  (dumb question--what else
    can I do???).  Does this happen to others?
    Thanks so much.  I am new to Verizon and so far I am pleased and really
    like that you got back to me!!
    Sincerely,
    Fran

  • Phone Service disconnected over VPN

    Hello,
    I'm using Version 9.2.1 (147214) of Jabber for OS X and I'm using a VPN to connect to my work network with AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.
    My issue is that Phone Services are disconnected while the Voicemail and Meeting Accounts are functioning as expected.
    My server settings are configured automatically, and I'm using the same saved credentials that work when I'm at the office.
    Any ideas?
    - Ken

    This issue is fixed.
    Once I changed the automatic configuration of the CCMCIP from an IP address to the hostname that my CUCM uses, my phone service registered across the VPN.

  • No phone service

     I am a customer who receives your internet for 34.99 and lifeline landline service. 
     I chose lifeline service for the landline rather than my lifeline cell as I was told I can only have 1 according to the Govt.regulations. I was also told I had to have the land line to keep your internet on.  So I chose to have the landline than the safe link govt. issued cell phone.
    Did you know your competitors do not need a land line to access the internet so I’m wondering if this is true or needed.
    Now here is my frustrating issue,for a while I have been having very bad interrupted internet load and speed for the last few months.  Been told to just shut off and on and I had someone come to my house on one occasion last month who left for 3 hours and I had to call Verizon to find the worker and dispatch. They located him and her so I  got a call back from them and  finally was told to just plug my internet back on, and that was it. It worked for a little while. Then off and on again.
     But since the 14th of July to my knowledge I have had no PHONE service now. NONE. No One can reach me either.  I honestly find this unnaceptable, Verizon.  I pay my bills on time and would like to just get answers and some service . I have been patient up to this point . I am also a customer who does not mind to pay more if it mean more better service.
    I have made numerous calls ,been disconnected after long wait times,  bounced from one person to another ,a number of times people came to my house and my building to fix the problem.
    On a number of times I have dealt with inconsistencies like dates made when they actually come a day EARLY when I am not there. I also have made appointments and also been told they don’t need to come to my house anymore so when I am not there they come another day and say an excuse that I wasn’t home when I was told I didn’t need to be since the issue is not in my house and told it is supposedly in 1 of the boxes downstairs.
      I have had other situations where someone comes out to the building downstairs a number of times and says they fixed it and I go home to make a call and the phone goes dead and the problem starts all over again.
    The last time someone came out Tuesday the 29th of July (and I was sure to be home that Monday also in case they came a day before as they are known to do so) ; they told me that no none is downstairs to open the door to another box my building super seems to be in charge of and needs a key.
     Shouldn’t Verizon keep such keys ???
     Now I nor anyone can reach the building super so that leaves me still with no service as a women approaching elderly age of 60 years.I have no home phone in case of emergencies and my internet wifi not working properly and overages on my cell phone piling up  when I use the internet  on my cell and they are restricting data due to over the limit. What am I to do now with you guys??
    I WAS told by your company I need this phone line to keep my( slow) internet on.  I get only2 mbps in my area and still cant get Fios in my building where there are people in my block who I was told have already .
    I have spoken to your competitor Time Warner and they say they don’t even need to get in a box and they do everything through a modem if this is true I might need to go to another company.
    I feel like Verizon is like the old ages.Why? Is there not anything your company can do to progress this situation at this point? I thought you guys where the leading company. I will try other means of getting this complaint out if you guys do not handle this or if I am contacting the wrong dept here and or do not get a reply ( not an automated or outourced either please.)
    Please direct me to who can as I will keep looking.  The better buisness bureau fcc news can be somewhere to go if you guys cant honestly help me in which i really hope you can. I also know that if it was you guys going through all this runaround you would be just as frustrated as i am .
    I am a dissapointed customer .

  • Jabber for iPhone & iPad too long to connect to "Phone Services"

    Hello,
    Has anybody ever experienced delay issues with Jabber for iPhone and/or iPad to connect to "Phone Services"?
    In my case, the service does connect but it can take about 1 minute. Some times it can be faster but some others it can take a while to make the service available.
    Regards,

    You've hit the nail on the head with your last sentence, though to me a month (and then another) to wait for a new line is nothing - I am on my fifth order with BT. They lost the first three, then tried charging me an arm and a leg in excess charges for the fourth. I am trying again, this time with a total package to see if they are a bit more useful when they actually know I'm not going to switch to another provider - fingers crossed.
    If they do come back with massive excess charges again though this time I've done my homework. I now know the measurements between my property and the pole as well as the BT price list they use to calculate the charges. I've also worked out a cheaper route than the one they were suggesting - Ofcom say they should offer the cheapest route and the opportunity for the customer to do some of their own work but with me they didn't do either. They also didn't consider that we don't have reliable mobile signal here. They also didn't provide me with any details of how they'd come to that figure and just demanded it. I've had lots of advice from DEFRA, the Department for Business, Innopvation and Skills, Ofcom and ex-Openreach planners and should be able to get a line under the USO. I have a horrible feeling that I've done all this homework now though and they'll just come out and do it without demanding the excess, but if they do I am at least ready this time.

  • Home Phone Service via Verizon Wireless needs some SERIOUS rethinking!

    Has anyone else signed up for home phone service over Verizon Wireless?
    Here in LA, they offered a $19.99/month deal using the wireless service - a box provides the service, and you plug your home phone in. The service is adequate, but somebody forgot to think about how home phones work. I tried to get my billing set up through my bank, and after getting no notice for three weeks, I got a message in my email box that my bill was delinquent, and I owed a late fee. I had tried to set up the billing via My Verizon, but could never get a password to work. I finally got a phone number to call, and they sent me a new password via text message - to a home phone with no text capabilities. After hearing and seeing nothing for another two weeks, I called again, and they told me they'd sent the message. I had to remind them that this was a home phone - no texts. So they offered to send me a letter with a new password, within 7-10 ten days. It arrived two weeks later, and didn't work. Each of these phone calls took about an hour, and I still didn't have a connection.
    I put the bills (now up to two delinquent cycles) on my credit card, just to bring thins current, and got one more password. This time I called BEFORE trying it, and with the assistance of a more determined tech, got an ID and password combination to work. I can now see my bill. I still don't know if the autopay will work, and I have no idea if there's any way to get a notice that the bill wasn't paid.
    I cancelled my AT&T service because of its cost, but at least its billing worked. Verizon has some serious rethinking to do about how it's billing system works for home users. And they didn't lock me into billing hell for two years.
    The topper is, today, I got a notice from Verizon that I've been delinquent in returning a refurbished instrument I never received, billed to a phone number I don't have. And of course there's no phone number to call to straighten it out. 

        Hello KeyGroupGJ!
    Wow, Im sorry for all the issues you have had with the Home Phone Connect service! I'd really like to assist you. You mentioned that there is no number to call to get this straightened out. No worries, there is no need to call us, since I can reach out to you. Please send me a direct message with your name, your mobile number, and a good contact number for you. I'll be happy to assist you!

  • No phone service for entire holiday weekend for senior citizen

    Phone service went out over 4th of July weekend and finally partial service on Sunday and better service on Monday, however there is static noise in the line and verizon acts like that is all right.  There are bushes in alley that have grown so large that they are pulling wires down from their sheer size. 20 years ago the alley was maintained and kept clear, times change and now I can't remember the last time the alley was cleared...if verizon don't do anything about this stretch of wires between the 2300 block of Wilder/Gerritt Streets (South Philly) they will when they fall. Just a heads up to future problems.

  • No phone service, now bogus email from Verizon

    We haven't had phone service for over a week and now received a bogus email that would like me to believe it is from Verizon saying there was a problem processing my payment.  Does Verizon want to know about this email and how would I contact them regarding it? It is very hard to find information on website other than very general information.  Thanks

  • If my phone service is disconnected, can I still use the number to iMessage? Under my setting in iMessages it only allows me to select my linked emails and the telephone number is there but grayed out and i can't seletect it !

    If my phone service is disconnected, can I still use the number to iMessage? Under my setting in iMessages it only allows me to select my linked emails and the telephone number is there but grayed out and i can't seletect it ! It wont activate. I just recentely got AT&T.  When I had verizon before and my phone got disconnected it allowed me to still iMessage off my number.

    If your phone service is disconnected, it's not your number any more.
    If you "just got AT&T", how can it be disconnected?
