    Replacing Obsolete Nortel MICS and Looking at FreeBPX. Opinions?

    jsaad, Point-to-point T1 is used to connect both PBXs. It's not a true point-to-point, it's emulated using TDMoIP RAD Ware boxes over an MPLS connection. It's required for site-to-site 4 digit extension dialing. We have a receptionist at our main location and she handles calls for both sites...

    Replacing Obsolete Nortel MICS and Looking at FreeBPX. Opinions?

    Sorry if my post offended you or anyone else--that certainly wasn't the intention. I'd gladly pay to have someone install an Elastix or FreePBX system. I have no issue with anyone making a living and charging for their services and given the the choice between hiring a large company or a...

    Replacing Obsolete Nortel MICS and Looking at FreeBPX. Opinions?

    Replacing Obsolete Nortel MICS and Looking at FreeBPX. Opinions?

    Thanks. Had a look at one of the videos with the T series Nortel phone and it's pretty slick. The guy on the video was keying in feature codes on the Nortel phone to get an outside line to make a call. I'm not sure if that's of the Nortel phone model being used or whether programmable feature...

    Replacing Obsolete Nortel MICS and Looking at FreeBPX. Opinions?

    Apologies in advance for the long post. I’m looking for a VoIP solution to replace our Nortel MICS system. We’re a special needs school for kids with Autism and have two locations. Each location currently has a Nortel MICS, PRI and 20Mbps internet service. The Nortel PBXs are connected to...

    Looking for Nortel Support Company in Boston, MA Area

    Hi all, First post--please be gentle :) The small company we've been using to support our MICS has had a couple of guys retire and we've been informed that they can no longer support Nortel equipment. The MICS at one of our facilities has recently started having issues where outgoing calls...
