Maybe this is Bell's way of making up for the exceptional service you've received thus far.  I seriously do hope you get it fixed though, I'd be annoyed as hell to have a shitload of police at my door on an ongoing daily basis.. |

The fault is at Bell as there is no first call. When the phone rings it is the OSPS. My next call tomorrow will be to bell's Executive Care line. And if that is not responsive, I'll be paying a visit to the Deputy Chief of Police to ask for their help in resolving this.
I also learned that I am considered a "high profile" person and generate a high priority police response if I don't answer the phone.  -- Need-based health care not greed-based health care. |

There are things like T.38 that are meant to help solve this, but in general, they're not well supported. Even Asterisk doesn't do T.38.
TBB and Vonage work, but it might be hit and miss. |

@teksavvy.com | reply to sbrook I have rogers digital home phone in our officer here at the house and the Fax has never once failed us in 3 years. I'm guessing it could possibly rely on the type/quality of fax machine used. We've got an aficio ricoh mp 2000.. |

I have that information directly from Rogers, as I work with them and know a number of senior staff on the cable side.

@videotron.ca | I would be worried that when a REAL 911 call is required, the police may not take it as serious since your address generated more 911 calls than 10 city blocks |
