Consider This . . .

The issue w/ this and all OTT VoIP services, however, is that the quality of voice service relies totally on the quality of the data connection . . . no data connection and you get no voice service . . . data connection flakes-out and so does your voice serivce.

That's why I dropped my OTT VoIP service and went back to landline . . . my data connection started dropping packets, which resulted in missed inbound calls and other wierd things.

The quality of your landline coive service is also dependent upon the quality of the copper line service.

My point wasn't about outside plant, specifically, but about quality of ISP service (which OSP a part of).

But, now if my ISP (vz.net) drops a packet or two, I'm none-the-wiser except for maybe an ever-so-slightly slower web page download. And my voice line is not impacted, that's still rock-solid.
