Manmade Web Limited

Manmade Web Limited is proud to announce the relaunch of the Fonznik, a service provided by Asteroute, as a pre-pay service - no need to be an AWS customer to use the service..

Asteroute has been relaunched with added WebRTC access.

AsterConn is a new feature that consists of a set of pre-configured buttons that you, the customer, can add to your web pages to link your web-page to your Asteroute service.

Notes on how to use AsterConn yourself have been added here.

MMW has provided support and development services to the Telecoms industry for more than 20 years.

About 15 years ago it became apparent that voice services would be carried on the Internet, as just another kind of data.

This was reported by David Isenberg in Rise of the Stupid Network - 1997

Market research found no VoIP (Internet telephony) equivalent to the Intelligent Network services available on the telephone network (pstn).

A need for Intelligent Voip Services (sometimes called Next Generation Intelligent Network - NGIN) was apparent and an IP Voice Service - Asteroute - was developed.

The results of market research were documented in the report Stupid_Network_Review_Sep_2012.pdf

A review of the 'Rise of the Stupid Network' is documented in the report Stupid_Network_Review_May_2024.pdf

While the Stupid Network Reviews largely examine the state of the Stupid Network in the commercial market a separate report examines the impact of the Stupid Network on the retail market - Voice_and_Video_on_Stupid_Network - June 2024

All these reports were linked together in a report on LinkedIn (provided here for convenience) The Stupid Network - What is it, and why should we care? - June 2024
