Field notes

The service separates the one-time installation from ongoing VoIP billing and asks customers to provide their neighborhood or ZIP code, phone count, and ownership status. Its stated workflow includes testing dial-out, ringing, and extensions, while warning that rotary dials generally cannot send star or pound menu codes. The page also notes that 911 calling depends on power, internet access, and a registered service address.
