Re: VoIP and Burglar Alarms: Bold thinking or old thinking? In my own life, before VoiceStick, I was the owner of a high volume company that sold surplus computer parts.
I had break ins all the time, worse our telco was the pits. They had a dirty line feed that lacked enough pairs. Eveytime you saw the PacBell truck you wondered if they had just stold your clean pair and gave it to someone else.
It got real bad, so I had Charter bring in a cable and I signed up for Vonage, made it my line 6 and also put the alarm on it.
After months of nagging the phone company they ran a new 150 pair cable into the park.
A week later some fools with a chain saw came into the cabinet pedestal and sliced the new line then started to break in. I had left my alarm on Vonage.
The bell scared them away, and one hour later I got there, then the Riverside PD showed.
The moral of the story, be in the computer business, trust Voip, and never do business in Riverside, Ca. |
