OK I must have been mistaken is assuming that in the paras below that you were not implying at the end of para one that FTEL did not have the capability to do intranet.

Could you please explain what "other stuff to hang off the gateway" FTEL are not providing and it's purpose. Para 2 start.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
From what I have read about FTEL and know about Inter-Tel, their gateways are similar. Inter-Tel adds other things like actual phone sets that plug into the wall with an ethernet type jack etc. The idea is that Inter-Tel provides an in-house PBX system that uses the
-----------------------------------------------------
corporate intranet to share the same fiber that the other datacom -------------------------------------------------------------------
stuff does.

In general, the two gateways are very similar. FTEL isn't providing
---------------------
the other stuff to hang off the gateway because they're going after a ---------------------------------------------------------------------
slightly different market than Inter-Tel. FTEL is going after the long-distance market, where a normal phone connected to the PSTN would be calling the ISP that has the Tempest, the call would
get routed to another Tempest in the remote city, and then another call would be made to the PSTN to get to the final destination.
