It uses the location of the nearest AP or the location recorded for the jack you're using if you're wired. If neither are available, the SfB application asks the user to enter their location. The analog phones we're switching from only update when an order is processed, but then customers generally have to put in a request for us to do a MAC order. The local PSAP will report to us if they get a 911 call with incorrect name or location info. It's not fool proof and there is plenty of room for errors, but it's not too bad, either. Andt >
