SIPGATE bloody brilliant VOIP from them...
SIPGATE bloody brilliant VOIP from them...
I get what your saying but sofar unless the BB go's off & thats rare.. all fine here.It's all good whilst the broadband is good, but with a landline Openreach has a mandatory obligation to fix and problem in a matter of hours, 7 days a week. With broadband the obligation changes from "hours" to "weeks" and many of the smaller organisations only take calls mon -fri office hours.
Probably not so important for mainly outgoing calls now mobiles are widely used but our office relies on incoming calls through 5 lines. I know it could save us a few bob every day, but if one of our major customers has to look elsewhere for an emergency job I don't want them looking for and finding another supplier.
That's actually not that hard. Get your IT provider to set you up with a decent router with fallback or failover to two or more comms providers. The router I've got here has 2 independent 4G compatible radios, each of those radios has 2 SIM card slots, it's also got another Ethernet WAN interface - so in theory I could be simultaneously connected up to all 4 mobile networks and another landline network of my choice all from the one box.VoIP is the future (but it might not be ready just yet) An associate who specialises in VoIP (Voice over internet Protocol) will not sell the service to any business unless it has 2 independent broadband services.
