I just spoke with a VoIP sales rep from TW telecom. They do offer SIP
trunks, but they are currently only certified to work with Cisco Call
Manager (I'm not really familiar with the Cisco line, I think that is
the name he used). This guy didn't seem like a true hands on tech guy.
He said they had 18 other products they were in the process of
certifying. The list included Nortel SCS 3.0 and Nortel SCS 4.0. No
sipXecs. I tried to explain the lineage of the various products and that
Nortel SCS didn't even exist anymore as it was now owned by Avaya. I
asked him for contact information as to who someone from sipXecs could
contact to try and explain a little better and possible get it put on
their list under the sipXecs name. I'll follow up if I get that info.

I've had both TW Telecom and TW Cable out here soliciting me. Despite
the similar name, they are two completely separate companies. TW
Telecom is pretty much business only. TW Cable is a residential-grade
company that also has a foot in the door of business services.

TWBC business phone service and sip = bad idea.
What they provide, at least in our neck of the woods, is proprietary
voip that is then converted to analog signaling at the client end,
requiring me to use a analog to sip converter inside to get it working
with sipx. We had nothing but a year of issues, with the biggest
problem being calls that would randomly terminate.
A switch to voip.ms <http://voip.ms> brought satisfaction to my
customer, and I've since learned my lesson.

They ONLY hand off their lines as analog, forcing you to get an analog
gateway. They will not provide a PRI or SIP, although they did say
that SIP trunking is something they are looking into down the road.
Stay away from Time Warner at all costs with VOIP equipment.

The advantage I see with voip.Ms is that they have automated failover
per number. At the same time you would need to address firewall needs
for each site versus the cost for a pri gateway(s). Voip.Ms has a how
to for sipx on their wiki now.

everyone's favorite provider these days? It would be two 50+ handset

More like a Tier 3. They are OK & relatively inexpensive for the
small business space.

higher speed and much less expensive than throwing in T3's and such.
