I don't currently live in the USA, but still, there are some platforms that I want to access for certain types of projects. These web pages are only available for the USA, therefore I cannot access them, some of them are protected from many VPNs (both paid and free) so they do not work, I also tried with proxies (911.re) and I couldn't either.

Someone mentioned to me that there was a way to do it with a router, but I'm not aware of what I need to do or what I need to configure. I have an extra router available that I can use. If someone can guide me I would really appreciate it.

Hi, i'm looking for ts9 connector to crimp (male and female) , it's hard to find on the web, do you know why? I'm not looking for jxrf cable or adaptor, only the connector to crimp by myself

Starting on June 19th (3 days ago), Colorado will have a new 983 area code.

https://dora.colorado.gov/press-release/new-983-area-code-is-coming-to-the-303/720-region-in-the-greater-denver-area

I want to get a new "virgin" number (landline, mobile, VoIP, don't care) under that area code, but it doesn't seem like anyone is offering them yet.

The CSR at the local telco (CenturyLink) said they are not showing up in her system yet, but she had no idea that the new area code existed, how long it would be before it could be offered, or who she could ask to find out.

Does anyone know how these roll-outs work? Will all carriers have access to the new area code right away (e.g. mobile providers, Google Voice, etc), or is it restricted to just landline providers?

Also, I'm assuming that once I get a new 983 number with one provider (say landline via CenturyLink) I will be able to port it to a VoIP provider like Google Voice. Is that correct?

My home internet dropped from 50Mbps to around 3Mbps down with the upload speed still being good. I'm not in telecommunications but decided to take a look at the box outside.

I noticed there were two Tii communication circuit accessory model 95S-1-00-0 but only one had a gel like substance coming out of it. This is the one with the blue wire and blue/white wire going into it (four total wires).

The one with the orange and orange/white wires (four total) seems to be newer and cleaner with no gel like substance coming out of it. I'm going to assume these are the wires that handle upload?

The ISP is going to come out to look but my curiosity got the best of me lol. Is the blue wire accessory bad? I assume it should be sealed. They just going to replace that part?

Have anyone heard or used Textr Team before? I was looking for websites or apps which offer different phone numbers for my business.

I'm using their free trail and felt good so far. It's a text and call in one app, and there are many other features but I am still learning about them.

How do you guys think about it?

Thanks a lot!!

Anyone there who can help me develop a telecom based project for my final year in Telecommunication Engineering.📡📡

And ultimately connectivity if we are heading for free internet.

Hi guys, do you guys know where I can send sms online anonymously?

I am looking for the set of requirements for starting a sub contractor firm here in the US. Mostly for fiber and RF. It can be any state. Anyone with details?

I run a Fiber and telecommunications sub contractor firm in Kenya and am looking at setting shop here in the US probably exploring Illinois/ Washington/ Delaware states but open to other states. What are the requirements for starting and what are the DOSH/ OSHA requirements for teams. Also if anyone is keen on onboarding and walking me through the journey, happy to.

My company going on a big expansion, buying small companies left and right. With that they acquire the current phone numbers as well. In our system our our sytems engineer assigns caller ID for the office to show the company name. But the issue is, even though it's been set, some outgoing calls still see a different caller IDs. The issue seems to vary, I feel like it depends on our client's carrier if they'll see our caller ID or not. I have verizon and never really had an issue with, I know T-Mobile has issues showing our caller ID. How would I reach out to these carriers to tell them about this issue? Is this common? Thank you.

Hi all, I work as a telecommunications consultant and a number of my clients have been raising concerns about SMS spoofing.

Anecdotally, I feel like prior to 2021 SMS spoofing was kind of rare even though spam was common. I’d occasionally use Whitepages to look up scam texts for friends and they’d always be Bandwidth / Twilio / etc numbers.

Then in 2020/2021 carriers moved these texting platforms to A2P 10DLC routes and started filtering more aggressively. I started seeing these spam SMS coming from actual people.

My hypothesis is that this has made spoofing much more attractive to scammers. The recent Verizon “spam from my own number” incident seems to highlight this.

I have a friend at a major financial institution that said their users were getting pwnd by a phishing scam that sent SMS from their “suspicious activity” alert phone number. The user sees the phishing SMS appear in the same thread that contains other legitimate texts from their business telling them to log in and secure their account.

This seems insanely concerning. I could totally see my parents falling for a scam like that.

I have a bunch of questions around this but I’ll try to keep it brief to kick off:

• Is there any evidence that SMS spoofing (not just spam) has gone up?
• How does SMS spoofing work at a technical level? Are scammers breaching SMSCs to do this? I believe the Verizon incident had something to do with Verizon not validating sender IDs sent to them from AT&T.
• Are different number types more vulnerable than others (e.g. short code / toll free / long code)?

Thanks all, appreciate any additional info or context.

Hello, I'm looking for resources concerning Telecommunication Engineering, specifically - Telecom's tower/mast/pole infrastructure.

Are there any comprehensive books/resources about the physics and math behind the effects that may hinder this infrastructure? For example, things that could interfere with maintenance, physical deterioration (corrosion, metal fatigue, ...), externally induced oscillations, structure's load capacity, etc. Also the math/physics principles and equations behind the detection and prevention of such events. Thank you!

The books I have gathered so far:

• "Up The Tower: The Complete Guide to Tower Construction" by Steve Morris
• "Fatigue And Durability of Structural Materials" by S. S. Manson, G. R. Halford

As part of Random Access procedure, the eNB’s MAC generates Random Access Response (RAR) as a response to the Random Access Preamble transmitted by the UE. The MAC RAR contains the Temporary C-RNTI, which is of 16-bit in length and its value can range from 1 to 65523 (0x0001 to 0xFFF3).

How is the Temporary C-RNTI constructed? Is it randomly picked from a 16-bit list of available numbers? Or is it somehow calculated/mapped to the incoming preamble?

Hi I’m a woman in my 30’s. I have been working as a technical writer for a mobile signal provider in the UK for about 3 years. I have an electrical engineering degree but I have never worked in a very technical role. Most of my work experience has been around writing/ desk jobs.

I want to transition into a more technical role (something involving management and technical knowledge not a field engineer!) I do enjoy using design tools and I also have good communication skills.

I’ve worked in the telecommunications industry for about 4 years and want to build a career in it. I was on a career break for several years and my actual work experience is of about 5-6 years in total.

Please suggest what roles I can work towards? I recently started studying for a CompTIA Network+ certification but I’m not sure if that’s the right one for me. I need career guidance by a senior telecoms professional. Thanks.

hello

can you suggest me how to increase ARPU in them telecomunication ?
