Netgear dumb commercial switches are good.

That’s where it begins and ends with them. Their Soho is shit. Has been for the last decade.

Last Soho I bought of theirs, a simple reboot would drop the configs 80% of the time.

The router after that was a tp link, it was good enough, def a step up from Netgear, but not great.

I ended up going mikrotik. Super solid, always updated, but man is it intense to learn. Would never recommend for a newbie to networking.

This is on hushed to sort out with iristel. They need to update the customer service record so the port can happen. There is nothing lucky can do other than try to port out.

Can you clarify? Like you’re calling from 1 platform, through your carrier to other numbers?

Panasonic doesn’t make VoIP phones anymore (thankfully).

For your home phone just pick one that meets what you need from walmart and plug it into an ATA.

If you’re downloading a lot of shows or games often, not too bad.

But wtf are you uploading? Are you sure neither of you are YouTube content creators?

More likely explanation is someone leeching off your wifi.

Have you tried reaching out to mitel? I only ask because any of our clients with mitels, it’s always a headache.

As someone paying $57 for 75mbps (with a staff discount!!), thats a solid deal if its the best you can get.

My building is in the process of installing their own fiber so now I wait :)

No there is no way for the average person to identify the owner of a number.

In fact unless you work for the carrier of that number there’s no real way to identify them without going to the police. And even at that it’s only if they are harassing or threatening you.

Not going to lie, I don’t know shit about grandstream ata’s, but is there not a way to prepend 1 to all calls? or 1 to any 10 digit call?

Also weird that callcentric doesn’t parse the call without the end user needing to dial 1. My company (5 different platforms atm) does it with out needing the 1, only exception is toll free dialing, the 1 is still required.

Man voip and fax are like oil and water. If you can get them to mix one way or the other, they’re fine. Otherwise you just end up with an oil slick in your pond.

I don’t know how many times I’ve fought with ATA’s, clients, up stream, our own NOC with faxing issues. The only one I never had issues with as a plain old analog line.

Does your carrier officially support T38? Or do they say the same as everyone else “Best Effort”™?

Are you able to listen to the pcaps at all and hear if anything sounds off? … I guess that would only work on g.711 calls, not t38.

There was a fax decoder I had found eons ago, ran it through cmd prompt, and it would spit out a readable log file that shows all the fax handshakes, etc. But I a) lost the download when my last laptop died, and b) cannot for the life of me find it again online.

Are you able to force the codec to be just g711 and see if the fax machine has issues still? It’s not impossible that the fax just isn’t working properly.

Hey thanks! Ya I can’t imagine massive changes being done in a few months. I’ll keep that in mind for when I do start the project.

Never even heard of 2600hz till now.

Also as a Canadian, this is nothing new. Our big 3 telecoms are buying up everyone and anyone that’s in their way
