Re: How do we regulate Vonage? CLECs are not required to provide everyone service, they can pick and choose. They can serve just businesses if they want to.
Think of VoIP more like Cellular service, is everyone covered? Can you use it everywhere? Is it subject to lifeline requirements? What are the Service Level Agreements if any?
As those in the blackout found out, you can lose your cell service, want phone service that is required to keep on working or have specific intervals of restoration? Keep a landline.
In a big disaster the landlines get busied out anyway, someday the best of both worlds will come together, packet voice, no busy signal, cheap AND reliable. |
