Method of providing caller identification for calls placed over an internet

The invention uses the advanced intelligent network to provide caller identification for calls placed over the internet. A long distance call placed with an internet carrier results in the originating SSP forwarding the call to an originating POP for the internet carrier. The caller ID information is routed through the signaling system 7 network to the SSP in the terminating network. The call is routed to a terminating POP and then to the SSP in the terminating network. The SSP inserts the caller ID information received through the SS7 network and routes the call to the terminating line.
