The Wiltel name stayed with Williams. Williams calls the old Vyvx group "WilTel"
The Worldcom carrier group still uses the WilTel name. As do the Worldcom trucks. How can that be if Williams owns the name? Also, the fact that Worldcom owns the name for another 7 years ( or is it 7 years total- I can't remember) was told to me by one of the Executive VP's with Williams Communications Group.

Wiltels' Martin intends on using more of their "lazy assets" to become a player in a big way once again in the carrier market. -peteCareful, Worldcom owns the rights to the name Wiltel for (I believe) another 7 years.
