 With the cable/telco modem, it's all SIP all the way from the modem
 to the cable company's equipment. So, theoretically, with backup
 power to the modem you'll have working dialtone regardless of city

 And a good reason to hang on to one 2500 set - mine's a black WE 2500
 set with a 1972 date stamp.
