1410345 2015-10-23 03:26:00 Does anyone have their burglar alarm working reliably over a VOIP connect using an ATA?

I have heard with some VOIP companies seems to work but I do not know how reliable this is or who they are. VOIP companies all seem to have a disclaimer in their terms that they are a voice supplier and do not guarantee burglar alarms etc.

I have just changed to VOIP on my line the alarm is on and is no longer communicating correctly. Before I spend time changing settings in the ATA and testing I thought I’d ask here first.

If it doesn’t work I’ll put a Radionet module or the like on the alarm.

1410346 2015-10-23 03:57:00 Yeah most will work provided your connection is stable, minimal jitter, minimal latency, minimal jitterbuffer. Use g711 as a codec and most are just fine. Chilling_Silence (9)

1410348 2015-10-23 11:11:00 Changed to G711 and configured Audio settings for NZ and worked straight away. I should have spent the time and configured properly when I installed it.

When I go fibre I plan to put a small UPS in to power it.
