You have two options:
1. The expensive one: Get yourself an SS7 connection and a contract with each network to send sms to via SS7. Contact the particular network for the costs of this. This option is not available with standard Kannel, but commercial SS7 drivers exist (but also cost a lot). 2. For each network, install a GSM modem with a SIM card of the particular network. Drawback of this method is that you probably won't be able to set your own "sender ID". == Rene From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: vrijdag 9 juli 2010 20:49 To: [email protected] Subject: How to set up Kannel without using a 3rd party gateway service? I'd like to set up Kannel to send SMS messages without going through a 3rd party gateway like Clickatell or Twilio. In other words, I'd like to connect to the SMPP server for each wireless services (AT&T, Verizon, etc.). 1. How difficult/easy is it to run a Kannel server this way? 2. Each SMSC has to be configured for each mobile network. What is the support like for each network in the US (AT&T, Verizon, T-mobile, Sprint) and what does it take to set up a contract with the carrier? 3. Can someone point me to a tutorial/blog for pulling this off (besides the docs)?
