Caller ID testing site here in VOIP Tech Chat http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21079777 en Tue, 10 Nov 2009 13:27:30 EDT Tue, 10 Nov 2009 13:27:30 EDT Re: Caller ID testing site here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083755 B : I don't get it; are they selling a way to "fix" the problem too?



One method of fixing requires us to change your telephone service so you reveal only your main telephone number and not your roll over numbers. The benefits of this change are only one number to maintain in national databases. The main number almost always gets the proper name as it alone is tied to (411) directory assistance, billing, yellow pages, etc.

Also, what's with the IP addressing? They own »testcall.com/ too...

In a realm outside causality and function]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083755 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:28:33 EDT Re: Caller ID testing site here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083752 voipMatt : Ultimately its the terminating carrier that should "dip" or pull the CNAME record for the number calling.... However some carriers do not do this, as each time they dip, it cost money.

My point was CNAME is not free from a service provider's standpoint.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083752 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:27:53 EDT Re: Caller ID testing site here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083732 trim :

x2 Thanks for the post.

But I would expect some "Unavailable" replies.... due to dipping for CNAM cost $ per dip.
not quite understanding your post.. do you mean VOIP incur more charges for CNAME?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083732 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:24:33 EDT Re: Caller ID testing site here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21083638 voipMatt : x2 Thanks for the post.

Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for a service like this for a long time.

Cavalier had the wrong name on my secondary line. Otherwise both Cavalier and Verizon were OK. These were with POTS lines. I will try my VoIP when I am at home.

The Vonage number answered with a modem tone the first and third times and a voicemail system the second time. So, no indication of how their service is working.
yeah I noticed my original AT&T ported to Sunrocket, and now to Ooma still shows the OLD caller ID name on Cavalier... (which is my father's name)

And on verizon, it shows "Unavailable"

Not sure if it is accurate, but I called a business number and my new Caller CNAME shows..

Not sure if its correct or not.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21079973 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 00:53:47 EDT Re: Caller ID testing site here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21079970 ArgMeMatey : Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for a service like this for a long time.
