Does anyone know of a way to send SMS messages without an internet connection?
Having a network monitoring system send sms pages via email very quickly runs into chicken-egg scenario. How do you email a page to let the admins know their net has gone down. :-P
AT&T shut down their TAP dialup late last year.
The only method that comes to mind is to buy a GSM modem which has SMS messaging capability.
Has anyone done this?

We use SNPP directly to our Nextel phones. AFAIK nextel has an SNPP dialup at NPA-NXX-NOTE where the NPA-NXX is the same as your phone number. We have nagios due this via qpage, works like a charm. -Patrick -- Patrick Muldoon Network/Software Engineer INOC (http://www.inoc.net) PGPKEY (http://www.inoc.net/~doon) Key ID: 0x370D752C "It said, ""Insert disk #3,"" but only two will fit!"
