When I recently moved, I bundled the service for landline and internet. The customer service rep never said a word that in order to have a true landline, I'd need a battery backup for the modem in case electricity went out. It would cost $99. for installation. I learned about the battery backup from another technician who had to come out for another problem. Kinda defeats the purpose of a landline, don't you think? I'm debating what to do. I hate my smart phone. I don't hear well on it and I hate carrying it around the house with me. Half the time, I'm using my 'landline' to call the cell phone just to find it.
