Switching to VoIP phones

Saving a few dollars for a few months on an inferior product -- VoIP cable phone -- followed by a long time of paying lots more for an inferior product, doesn't make sense. AND if you look at the true costs of the comparable bundles, you're spending more money, not only when the special ends, but NOW, for that inferior product.

Re: Switching to VoIP phones

You are aware that Cox Digital Telephone isn't VOIP right? When power goes out you still have phone with Cox Telephone hmm and you save money with them odd when I had Cox Digital Telephone it was $49.95 for unlimited local and long distance but after all the taxes and fee's I was paying over $85...

I'm aware

I've been told this is VOIP just using their private LAN. (not going through the internets)

Re: I'm aware

When I had Cox for my phone the tech that installed it said that it was indeed VoIP just a closed system on their network. The reason why it doesn't go out when the power goes is because there is a UPS on the side of your house, in that grey Cox Box, along with an ATA that they are using to supply you with phone.

If the power goes out for long enough, it will disconnect. They often have this info in the small print on their ads, and would rather keep it a secret Im sure.

See update

I've had it up to here with Cox's Phone service. Monday, Embarq is coming to give me a good old fashioned pots line.

Just going to use them for cable/net.
