MIT "Tie Line" has been re-established

You can now dial MIT phone numbers directly and toll free from any WHOI phone. This service is used in the same manner as the old MIT tie line, but actually places your call over the Internet using voice over IP technology.

  1. Dial 88 followed by an MIT five-digit extension, or dial 88, wait for the voice prompt "MIT," then dial an MIT five-digit extension.

  2. You can still place calls to MIT conventionally by dialing the full 10-digit phone number: 9-1-617-253-1000.
