Yeah. I'm really not buying the VOIP story.

If there was a fiber cut, it would have affected a major ISP network backbone, and thousands of people would have been affected, but only for a few hours. Fiber cuts are caused often by something like a train derailment (most railways lease their right of way to network providers - like ATT) so they don't take 24 hours to be located and repaired.

Also, the network techs at the NOC at Verizon and Novatel would have told me if that was the case.

Two hard wire POTS lines? One for fax and one for voice. Kinda slim.

That toll-free # could have been retermed to ring on a Verizon cellphone temporarily.

And who uses a hard wire line as the lead line in a hunt group that rolls over to VOIP? I don't think so.

Fun fact - the number 520-624-5248 once belonged to a pawn shop on E22nd in Tucson. THEIR toll-free number, however is functional.
