Dial Patterns
Skyetel will accept calls with 10 or 11 digits (we will not accept 7 digit dialing). We reccomend sending us 11 digits as some of our fancy features (like Local Presence) have strict digit requirements. These are our recommend Dial Patterns:
If you intend to use Skyetel for E911, you will need to add 933 and 911 to this dial pattern:
Click Submit and Apply Config
and 
With these settings, you will be able to place and receive calls on the Skyetel Network!
