We made the switch to digital voice

It was relatively painless; took the technician about 2 hours. We switched all our phone lines from regular lines to digital, through our cable modem. There were several reasons for doing so, but most of all, for the same price we were paying for just local calling service, we now get unlimited local and long distance. Also, the new cable modem will boost our internet speed. So far so good! I'll keep you updated on any problems we may experience. I know some people expressed concern that if the power went out, we would be out of phone service. Apparently the cable modem has a 10 hr battery back-up. Hopefully we'll never have to use it!
