Due to infrastructure changes being made within the telecommunications industry, your current phone line no longer provides a reliable connection for your alarm system. Upgrading to a wireless communicator is crucial to guaranteeing your system can transmit data to our monitoring station.

Local telecommunications companies have been changing their landlines to VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) technology. VOIP does not provide a consistent connection for fire and systems. Click to find out more.
Landlines are easier for criminals to disrupt and overcome. Above ground lines can also be more susceptible to weather events such as storms and natural disasters.
Modern alarm systems offer added services such as remote monitoring and control. They also offer added automation capabilities which are not compatible with telephone lines.
Every day our central station receives numerous notices that another security system is not communicating. When we alert customers, they are often unprepared and had no idea their landline has been affected by telecommunications infrastructure being moved to fiber optics and VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) technology. Some clients had received a letter, but didn’t realize how it would impact their security system. Other clients weren’t given any warning at all. It’s important to be proactive so your system isn’t left inoperable. There’s a good reason why VOIP doesn’t work well with security and fire systems. Find out more here: vyanet.com/VOIP
There are many positive advantages to switching to wireless communication. First, most wireless upgrades enable certain remote features that weren’t available through a landline. Second, if you are paying for a phone line for your security system, you may now save money once you cancel this service. Additionally, cellular lines are faster than older landlines.
