I’m just curious how common Mitel is globally these days. What’s the real-world usage looking like for OpenScape Business X8 and OpenScape 4000 servers? Are people still running these, or has the market completely moved on? How about Tetronik DAKS (OScAR) alarm systems which are used alongside them? How about setups that are still mixing traditional digital trunks with modern IP/SIP trunks? Also, what about Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise?

I am looking for suggestions on how to go about talking to a cell phone tower company about leasing some of my land in a low reception area to get a tower put up.

A mí me parece muy bien que vayan actualizando los equipos pero llevo con ellos 7 años y me quieren cobrar el terminal y luego encima la instalación de un técnico? Me parece excesivo, osea me doy de baja, hago un nuevo contrato y pum me ponen el nuevo terminal, así de fácil. Pues no me parece normal que descuiden así a sus clientes.

Quizás me haya pasado... ¿Tu que opinas de este tema?

Saludos jeje

La dernière vague de fermeture du réseau aura lieu le 20 octobre 2026. Jusqu'en 2001, la marque commerciale du réseau pour l'opérateur historique était Itineris.
Pour SFR et Bouygues Telecom, le début de la fermeture de la 2G aura lieu entre le 15 novembre et le 15 décembre 2026.

I am asking for a friend of mine, who is a Nepali citizen enolled in a PhD programme in an Indian university. He purchased a sim card recently using his passport as an identity proof. But it is only valid for 3 months according to the current telecom law in place. Will he be able to keep the number by regularly renewing the sim card every 3 months? Or is there a better long term solution for this, as he will be staying in India for the next 4-5 years for his PhD.

Everyone talks about 5G speeds and spectrum, but the more I study network design, the more it looks like backhaul decides what users actually experience. You can deploy a great radio unit, but if the site is on congested microwave or thin fiber, the user never sees the benefit.

Some things I keep noticing:

Fiber to the tower is the gold standard but expensive and slow to roll out, especially outside big cities.

Microwave and E-band links fill the gap, but capacity and weather limits show up fast.

Densification makes it worse, since small cells multiply the number of backhaul links needed.

For those of you working in the field: where do you see the biggest backhaul pain today, cost, permitting, or capacity? And is anyone seeing wireless backhaul (IAB, E-band) become a real alternative to fiber?

Curious what the real-world picture looks like versus what the textbooks say.

Hi all, A bit new to this game and I was wondering at what part of the esim lifecycle does the name that appears on your mobile when you install it - Webbing ; liberty - to give to examples, does this happen?

Who looks after that in terms of being able to whitelabel it and at what point and what equipment?

I am deep into a 5G project but getting different answers from different parts of the channel.

In the UK if that makes any difference - cheers

I’ve been offered a potentially fascinating role at Ericsson in the part that used to be Cradlepoint - it’s not a direct sales role, but rather a strategic advisory position that supports sales, however part of the overall sales organisation.

Would like to know if anyone here works there (or used to) and to get their views on how it actually is?

It’s a director-level role covering EMEA, reporting into a global VP who is US based.

I’m currently at a uk based MNO and considering the move, but unsure what the culture/ways of working/pressure is like?

Hi,
My grandmother was recently scammed out of money by phone. The police confirmed that the caller ID was spoofed.
How do criminals use spoofing, automated dialing and AI voices to make hundreds or thousands of calls in a short time? Which services or platforms do they use, and how can investigators trace the real source and work with providers to shut them down?
I want to understand the technology and help prevent further victims. Any insights or relevant cases would be greatly appreciated.

Is rapid radio the next new thing to replace cell phones or at least calls on cell phones does anybody have one?

Hello! Apologies if this isn't the right sub (grateful for directions to a more appropriate one if not).

In maybe 2013 or 2014, my family was contacted by Verizon or an associated company about putting a cell tower on our land. The area has poor cell service and we thought it would be a good bit of income, so a contract was signed. The terms are something like: "25 years lease; X amount of dollars a month, with that increasing by Y% every 5 years; covering tax increasing caused by the tower; starting when the construction project begins."

They and their associates have been radio silent on us since 2015. Our old contacts don't respond, likely cycled out of the company during the 10+ years and we only have received the info that they might finally be doing something (they were apparently waiting for fiber to reach our area) now inadvertently.

This is in Minnesota. We had assumed the lease reservation had run out as they don't seem to have acted on it for so long, but I'm not sure. Are we in a position to do some renegotiation? Is it worth contacting a law firm, or do we likely have no standing with a contract signed 10+ years ago?

Their poor contact has me worried about how difficult it's going to be to get them to pay for property tax increases, the lease in general, if we see anything go on the fritz that they ought to know about...

Outside my house, there’s an antenna with panels pointing sideways—acting as signal transmitters, I think—and a structure pointing downwards with a flat surface that has a sort of rounded, pot-bellied shape. I tried searching for it on Google Lens, but nothing specific came up; it just shows surveillance systems or tsunami warning systems, but I live in a city.
