Hmm, okay, so would it be possible to maintain *one* POTS line that is used if anyone dials "911" on their desk phone (set this up in * dial plan), then it connects to emergency services properly, and then use a VoIP dial tone provider for *everything* else? This assumes we are having only one emergency at a time!
Yes, that would work fine.
Now, if that is possible, how does the VoIP dial tone provider get my inbound local and toll calls? I would want my "local" phone number to work, of course.
You would need to redirect your local number to them. This ALWAYS assumes that the VoIP provider has a switch in your local CO or an agreement with someone who does. Vonage and Voicepulse, for example, do not have a presence in my area. I intend to maintain several POTS lines for incoming calls, and use a VoIP provider for all outgoing calls.
