Re: [BroadVoice] Seems that BV is now using WilTel
Interesting -- mine's still 726-32 (used to always be 711u). This is on my GNaps #.
I'll have to try to (former) GBLX number later... |

I have an SPA 2000. I will give it a try, thanks.
Edit: Mine says G711U. |

1) Ensure you have a Sipura
2) Get an incoming call
3) check the 'info' page of the device for the 'encoder' and 'decoder' |

Where can you tell what codec is being used on incoming calls ? |

Another notable change...
Incoming calls are now using g726-32, instead of g711u. Outbound is still 726-32, as it has been for months... |

When I dial NPA 700 4141 I get either "Your inter-LATA service is now active" or "We're sorry..." Of course, it's not surprising that BroadVoice would be using more than one carrier.

So then Williams is outbound... But will they open up incoming service through that provider? I would prefer not to be with XO if I don't have to, as I had problems with them back before BroadVoice signed with Global Crossing.
I just tried calling it from my 480-422 GBLX #...
480-700-4141: Number can not be completed as dialed
700-4141: "Password incorrect, please enter your password followed by the pound key" and then it hangs up (fast busy) |

Dialing to any area code (NPA-700-4141) is yielding the Williams carrier code...
Could be BV posturing itself to Vonage-like quality, with Williams' global reach for international calling; could be BV grooming itself for a sale... Who knows... |

That would be good news. But how do you make the connection? BroadVoice doesn't appear to be mentioned in that article.

nee Williams Communications for its outbound service -- a la Vonage:

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Hopefully, it'll reek of quality (seems solid here!)
Still wondering where they ported the customer-assigned GBLX DID numbers to... |
