Intruder Alarms

    I want to install a domestic burglar alarm, with dial-out on activation. Now, is there any way I can this to send a text message over a VOIP 'phone? I know you it'll work on a normal landline, but I'd hoped to get rid of mine. Also, I'm aware that you can get an alarm box with a SIM that acts like a mobile 'phone, but is there a control box that will talk over a VOIP line? Thanks.

    Thanks for the response. Forgive my ignorance, but does ADSL involve a telepone line? I'm on Irish Broadband (Breeze) for internet access, and it's been great over the years. (Can you believe that I still can't get broadband on the 'phone line here in Dun Laoghaire? in 2008? And we wonder why broadband penetration is so low.) Anyway, I was hoping to change my 'phone to VOIP and get rid of the eircom line completely. I'm anxious to install a burglar alarm ASAP, hence my original question. :confused:

    I think that unit will give an anolouge line out regardless.
    There is also a GSM router from Astec. You use a mobile sim card & this unit a line out with a dial tone.
