@aaronstuder I was going to do this for my parents but then decided to go the Grandstream HT701 direct to voip.ms. Parents have a flaky internet connection so they're forever rebooting the damn ISP router. It's such a pain in the ass I'm almost regretting it. Make sure their internet connection can support voip otherwise you'll kick yourself.
bingo

- SIP Provider Failover
- Free Extension to Extension Calling
- Maybe more Control? Voicemail, Call Forwarding, etc?

Extension to Extension is big for me. The whole family can call each other this way.
