| In reply to Ahrenl and PGHammer... huh???
You cannot get an analog signal down a fiber optic line no matter how hard you try. It has to be converted to digital signal to travel though the fiber optics. Hence VoIP. Calling it POTS is misleading and implies old copper.
I have flat-rate unlimited local/long-distance now from the cable provider. It is over the cable line in a digital format. VoIP.
If my telco offered telephone service over their copper line but converted to digital and sent over the internet protocol... it's VoIP.
Calling it POTS is confusing when its clearly digital and VoIP. --
