Did they do any testing with the phone line? When I talked to them today, they didn't recommend VoIP phone lines and from doing a little research in the past, some people have had issues with using VoIP lines as well. I know with my ATA and even my Cisco VoIP phone, there's a second or two delay before I get a dial tone.

The other big issue being that if power is cut, your ATA or VoIP device is offline and it can't make a call. You'll probably need to back it up with some sort of battery backup.
