PersonalTelcoPbx is a telephone system providing user friendly voice communications that very closely resembles what you get with your standard telephone company but with more features and less (nearly zero) cost. It currently consists of a single Linux host running the Asterisk open source PBX software with some special telephony hardware inside but will hopefully expand to a network of similar servers.

External Access

Gateways currently exist to the public switched telephone network (PSTN), Free World Dialup, IAXTel, e164.org and of course SIP on the Internet. Plans are in the works for integration with ENUM and e164.org but these have not been fully implemented yet. Here are the numbers you can use to reach the PtpPbx from these telephone networks:

PSTN (like Qwest or Verizon)

(503) 914-6550

Free World Dialup

274185

IAXTel

(700) 914-6550

SIP

sip://5039146550 @sip.personaltelco.net

e164.org (International ENUM)

88299 000079 00

Dialing Plans

Depending on your context you may have different dialing options available. Currently there are two visible contexts: incoming caller and registered user. The incoming caller context is what you get when you reach the PBX by dialing one of the numbers listed in the External Access section, the registered user context is what's available on phones (hardware or software) that are attached to a registered account on the PBX.

Getting an Account

This process needs to be more streamlined but for now you can request an account by sending mail to nat@personaltelco.net. Currently the system supports SIP, IAX and IAX2 registrations.
