Abstract

A method and system are disclosed transmitting a message to a telephone station. Different routing strings are used to establish calls between different network elements, based on the location of the network elements with respect to one another. Different time delay periods are associated with the different routing strings so as to offset any differences in the time needed to setup the systems for the transmission of a message to a telephone station. This enables messages to effectively transmitted to the telephone stations so that they are complete and not cutoff.
