Alarmed? Don't be. | Chorus

 

Perhaps @chorus would like to weigh in and help the OP not be alarmed. 

 

 

This is assuming the model of Alarm in question supports an IP Module

 

tim0001:

 

The only option given by the Alarm Provider was to change back to a traditional landline (eg change to NowNZ, or Spark).  Which, and I could be wrong on this, is $35pm more ($56pm more with Spark).  There might be some better deals

 

 

Looks like it doesn't

Even if there was an IP module, it would need to be able to cope with the packet loss.  Some of those ISAMs with non-fibre backhaul get above 30% packet loss at peak times (I'll refrain from posting more Samknows graphs)  

 

I've asked for someone technical to give me a call from the alarm company.  Would be good to hear Chorus's view on the BBIP though.
