Hi,
Hope someone can help me out.
I have a grandstream ht-486 (that I bought from the voxilla store), because I needed a failover in case the voip provider fails.

I now realise that maybe the SPA3000 might have been a better choice as you can set it for different dialtones depending on whether the voip or pots line is active.

So the question is:
If the power goes out, the 486 will automatically route calls made through it onto POTS. That's good. If power and VOIP are up, I can manually route calls throgh POTS by dialing *00.
But - if power is up, but for some reason BroadVoice is having a bad moment - I'm scared that I could accidently call international on pots for an hour. Will that happen? Or will I get some kind of network busy tone if VOIP is bad, but power is ok? (yes, I could just test it - but I'm not at home and my wife is, and she'll be calling her intl parents).

thanks,
richard

handy tone 486, can be on in the PSTN but in case that it is in a linking PSTN does not receive from voip and if speaking in voip it does not receive PSTN, and it it does not transfer of the PSTN voip or voip-PSTN this and a the 488 function that or spa 3000 only has forgives my English but I answered by translator ok

The failover only occurs on power outage, as I recall, so if you make a call and BroadVoice is having a bad moment, the call likely will not go through.
