Aren't VOIP systems already required to support 911? I know I pay a $1.50/month fee for 911 service on my home VOIP line.

- tjohns 9y agoNot all. Computer-based services like Skype often don't support calling 911, even though they can call other landlines. (They're pretty clear about this when you sign up for an account.) I have an ObiHai box at home that lets me use Google Voice as a my landline VoIP provider for free. However, I still have to pay a second SIP provider about $15/year just for 911 access.
- MichaelGG 9y agoThe requirement is that only interconnected two way calling requires this. Skype sells separate in and out products, so they aren't two-way. Yeah, I know.
