Wired access to SMS?
by William Herrin 13 Oct '12

13 Oct '12

Hi Folks, I'm looking for a way to do wireline access to send and receive cellular phone short message service (SMS) messages. Despite all my google-fu, I have had limited luck finding anyone that meets my needs, so I'm hoping someone here has found the path through. My main criteria are: 1. Low quantity, high reliability. I'll want a few dozen phone numbers and effectively I'll be sending to and receiving from phones I own. 2. Wireline delivery to Honolulu and Northern Virginia. Dynamically move numbers between the two locations for failover purposes. 3. U.S. based carrier. Tying in to the SMS system via Europe isn't acceptable to my customer. 4. Solution must reach phones on all U.S. cellular carriers. 5. Price is a very distant fifth criteria to the preceding four. I can consider Internet based systems where the provider uses U.S. based facilities and ties in to a U.S. phone network, provided that my standards of reliability and redundancy are met by their infrastructure. Alternately, I can also consider a wireless carrier that can provide two SIM-based phones with the same phone number for sending and receiving SMS messages. I'd put the sims in a pair of modems and manage deduplication of the received messages in software. Has anybody had any luck with this kind of requirement? Which vendors should I talk to and who at the vendor? Thanks, Bill Herrin -- William D. Herrin ................ herrin(a)dirtside.com bill(a)herrin.us 3005 Crane Dr. ......................

Typical additional latency for CGN?
by Tom Limoncelli 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

Have there been studies on how much latency CGN adds to a typical internet user? I'd also be interested in anecdotes. I've seen theoretical predictions but by now we should have measurements from early-world deployments. Thanks, Tom -- Speaking at MacTech Conference 2012. http://mactech.com/conference http://EverythingSysadmin.com -- my blog http://www.TomOnTime.com -- my videos

Native IPv6 providers/datacenters list?
by Christopher J. Pilkington 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

I want to make an informed response to a comment made by our CenturyLink rep regarding IPv6, in the context of SAVVIS not being able to provide IPv6 at their DC3 facility: > There is only a handful of carriers that can provide that > service today and CenturyLink (Legacy Qwest) happen to be one > of them. Is there a list of native IPv6 providers out there somewhere, particularly one that includes hosting data centers (e.g., SAVVIS), with which I could cluebat^Wshare with my rep? Thanks, -cjp

Verizon's New Repair Method: Plastic Garbage Bags
by Eric Wieling 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

For a while we have had a customer with some lines which go down every time it rains. We put in the trouble ticket, a couple of days later Verizon says the issue is resolved...until the next time it rains. The customer sent us some pictures today of the pole outside their office. The repair appears to be wrapping some plastic bags around something up on the pole. Here is link to the pictures the customer sent us, in case anyone in the mood for a good scare. http://rock.nyigc.net/verizon/
