Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky all the time, esp when it rains.
I use Charter VoIP server at home. Basically, unless you looked at where the wires ran or peeked at the bill, you'd never know that it wasn't a regular phone. There is one caveat with any VoIP service, which is that you need local battery backup for the equipment in your house. The VoIP box Charter provides includes a battery with (IIRC) about 8 hours standby or 3 hours talk time, but it's not a bad idea to back that up with a larger UPS. -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu | For every problem, there is a solution that WPI Senior Network Engineer | is simple, elegant, and wrong. - HL Mencken GPG fingerprint = 6174 1257 129E 0D21 D8D4 E8A3 8E39 29E3 E2E8 8CEC
