( resent this because people said that their mailers junked it because
it contained the word *aked)..actually from what I hear that's one of
the reasons why version is calling it "dry loop dsl")
Well..some good news and bad news..
I've been on the phone _all_day_ with verizon..
..i'm still kinda exhausted from it..but I'll try to give a summary..
#1. this is a test program, only available in a few places
- erie, pa - business and residential
- new jersey - business and redential
- new york - business only
and some other specific north east cities..
#2. NOBODY at verizon knows about it..i've been in the phone literally
with 25 people from verizon.
#3. it's ONLY offered for people that are using the phone number
portability services and CANCELING their phone line.
i.e. you can't call up verizon and say "I want dry loop dsl". In fact,
you can't even initiate it with verizon. I finally got ONE person on the
phone that found a service alert that has the procedure and talks about
it.
The general procedure is:
1. you call up your wireless phone company, tell them you want to
transfer your home number to your cell phone. Also tell them that you
have DSL and want to keep the service.
2. the cell company will put in a request for the transfer
3. you get a call from the CANCELLATION department from verizon. You
confirm it.
4. they CANCEL and disconnect your phone for up to 5 days, and
basically re-order dsl (or something like that...i was jotting down
notes like crazy)
in the end however, it looks like NY is only being offered this TEST
pilot program for business DSL. So for this to happen, you'd need to
convert over to business DSL.
Ugh...
Regarding your asterisk question, below is my extentions.conf file:
This is the outgoing part of my extentions.conf file:
(Home is the default context)
[home]
exten => 2201,1,Dial(${PHONES1},20,Ttr)
exten => 2201,2,Macro(vmessage,${PHONES1VM})
exten => 2201,3,Hangup
exten => 2202,1,Dial(${PHONES2},20,Ttr)
exten => 2202,2,Macro(vmessage,${PHONES2VM})
exten => 2202,3,Hangup
exten => 13,1,DateTime()
exten => 13,2,Wait(1)
exten => 13,3,DateTime()
exten => 13,4,Hangup
exten => 15,1,VoicemailMain
exten => 15,2,Hangup
include => iaxtel
;include => shatter
include => dialout
[iaxtel]
exten =>
_17XXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(IAX2/mmusone:mypass at iaxtel.com/${EXTEN}@iaxtel)
exten =>
_1888NXXXXXX,1,Dial(IAX2/mmusone:mypass at iaxtel.com/${EXTEN}@iaxtel)
exten =>
_1877NXXXXXX,1,Dial(IAX2/mmusone:mypass at iaxtel.com/${EXTEN}@iaxtel)
exten =>
_1866NXXXXXX,1,Dial(IAX2/mmusone:mypass at iaxtel.com/${EXTEN}@iaxtel)
exten =>
_1800NXXXXXX,1,Dial(IAX2/mmusone:mypass at iaxtel.com/${EXTEN}@iaxtel)
[dialout]
include => to-nufone
include => to-pots
include => fwd-out
exten => i,1,Playback(invalid)
exten => i,2,Hangup
[to-nufone]
exten => _91NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial,IAX2/mynufoneuser at NuFone/${EXTEN:1},Ttr
[to-pots]
exten => _.,1,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN},70,Tt)
[fwd-out]
exten => _7.,1,SetCallerID(${FWDUSERID})
exten => _7.,2,SetCIDName(${FWDUSERNAME})
exten => _7.,3,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@fwd.pulver.com)
exten => _7.,4,Playback(invalid)
exten => _7.,5,Hangup
In short, heres what it does:
2201 - dials the INTERNAL phone that's extension 2201
2202 - dials the INTERNAL phone that extension 2202
13 - play back the date and time
15 - access voicemail
1700-number - send through iaxtel
1888-number - send through iaxtel
1877-number - send through iaxtel
1866-number - send through iaxtel
1800-number - send through iaxtel
91(areacode)number - make a phone call using my nufone VOIP provider
anything else - send directly through the POTS line anything that begins
with a 7 - send through free world dialup.
Heh..actually since I'm looking at this, I guess it never sends anything
through free world dialup, because the POTS line grabs it first..
