Businesses Evacuating
June 13, 2008 - 4:58 PM
We are continuing to get calls from businesses that are being evacuated. Common questions are:
- how do I move the server?
- what do I do about my phone lines?
- what do I do about internet service?
We've been co-locating some servers here in our office and putting up wireless internet connections for some clients. We've also signed up more than a few customers for Vonage VoIP phone service. You can pick up an adapter at Best Buy and sign up for your account. We're then configuring the customers phone numbers to forward to the new Vonage number that is terminated over the internet connection that we set up.
One nice thing about wireless internet is that it's really easy to setup. We setup multiple new links across town today for people that are moving on the fly. Qwest has been telling most people they can't get internet into their temp offices until the week of the 23rd to the 27th. I'm loving Vonage too! Clients just need an internet link and they can have email/phone/fax services--we moved have had people back up and running in less than 4 hours!
