The Phone Company for Fun and Games aka PhunCo
In Mid 2025, a go-live date is to launch a telephony service, a private telephony service to no one else but my community! It will be based off one my Asterisk PBX instances, and you can call your fellow people! There are no limits per number (if you want to tie other phones or systems or SIP lines, go to your heart’s content!)
Advantages?
- It’s hosted on Business Class Internet (the whole world is open from within, but don’t get any ideas, any critical systems are completely on a different connection and host) This means you get high uptime (unless Eversource does something unforgivable lol!)
- Running on an alternative distro
- There are blocks of numbers for Dial-A-Joke and customers of all shapes and sizes
Requirements
- Broadband grade Internet access
- Devices that support either the Session Initiation Protocol or SIP or connecting an Asterisk via the Inter Asterisk Exchange or IAX
- A broadband connection with at least 10 megabits per second down (for at least handful of phones
- Recommended devices: Poly/com SoundPoint, VVX series, Grandstream, and other VOIP Phones that support specifically SIP, and ones that are designed to be directly connected to the Internet
- Tested devices: the Zoiper soft phone, Mitel 5330 = SIP mode, more to be added once there’s confirmation and documentation.
- NAT Access Rules or “port forwarding” to a SIP service that is not 5060, and customer/user customize the port allocation; and. Real Time Protocol ports open to a range per to the signed AUP.
- Not a life saving service (no 9-1-1 access at all) you waive your rights in the AUP
- No expectation of uptime
- No. ability to dial out from a trunk your end. These phone numbers cannot be used for as trunk access numbers or be in violation of the AUP
