Business phone service / Waco, Texas
Business phone service for Waco businesses between Dallas and Austin.
Waco sits halfway between Dallas and Austin, and many local firms have a second office up or down I-35. Manufacturers, healthcare offices, businesses near Baylor and the tourism trade downtown all run on calls. Older office buildings in Waco also still carry PRI circuits and phone systems from years ago. Texwan helps these businesses move to modern service without losing a number.
We plan the migration remotely, ship programmed phones, and connect multiple offices into one system.

01 / Threat Briefing
Threat Briefing
Carriers are retiring legacy copper and PRI service, and the number inventory behind a PRI, including DID blocks, hunt groups and caller ID, has to be moved carefully. FCC rules protect your right to port those numbers. (FCC)
Multi-line systems must also carry correct 911 location data after the move. (FCC)
02 / Risk and Compliance Matrix
Risk and Compliance Matrix
| Risk | Control or compliance mapping | Business impact |
|---|---|---|
| PRI circuit with undocumented DIDs and hunt groups | FCC number porting (FCC) | Numbers dropped at cutover |
| 911 location records left behind in the old system | RAY BAUM’S Act dispatchable location (FCC) | Wrong location sent with 911 calls |
| Two offices on separate systems | NIST SP 800-58 architecture (NIST) | No transfers between sites and double the vendor work |
03 / Architecture and Remediation Directives
Architecture and Remediation Directives
- Inventory every DID, hunt group, caller ID and 911 record on the PRI before ordering the port.
- Port numbers in one planned window and keep the old circuit until calls are confirmed.
- Move both offices onto one hosted system with extension dialing.
- Rebuild 911 records for every site and remote user.
04 / Vendor-Neutral Verification Checklist
Vendor-Neutral Verification Checklist
Three checks you can run yourself, with or without us.
- Get the latest bill for your PRI and count the DIDs listed.
- Call each published number for your business and note where it rings.
- Transfer a call from one office to the other and see if it works.
Legacy and odd setups
Old phone systems in Waco? We can work with them.
This is where Texwan started: PRI circuits and Nortel and Mitel systems. If your Waco office still runs one, we can connect it to SIP trunks through a gateway and retire the PRI first, then replace phones when you are ready. Unusual setups, like a PRI shared by two businesses or a system nobody has the password for, are familiar ground.
How it works
Remote setup, phones shipped ready to use
- Review. Send us your current bill or a list of numbers, users and sites. We map extensions, call flows and anything unusual.
- Build. We build the hosted system or SIP trunk configuration and program each phone (Yealink, Yeastar, Grandstream or Sangoma) with its extension and buttons.
- Ship. Phones arrive pre-configured and labeled. Your staff plugs them in; no technician visit is needed for a standard setup.
- Port and support. Numbers port on a date you approve, and support is remote, with every request answered within one business day.
Questions
Waco business phone FAQ
Can we move off our PRI without changing numbers?
Yes. We inventory every number and port them to SIP or hosted service in a planned window.
Can our Waco and Austin offices share one system?
Yes. A hosted system covers both sites with extension dialing and shared queues.
Can our old Nortel stay for a while?
In many cases, yes. A gateway connects it to SIP trunks until you are ready to replace it.
