It will work without a home line but it doesnt have the ability to work over a cell line.

Yes... but without home phone, it won't be able to send you a notice when it gets triggered.

Connie, I think you do need a land line, unless you have a cell phone with a phone line input (I've never seen one) that you can dedicate to the Freeze Control and way to keep the phone charged.

It works with a landline, but mine is connected to a cell phone. Make sure you buy the cell unit...it allows you to connect directly to a cell tower. This unit is a smart device. You don't need a landline to use it.

It works without a land line if you want to use it only for cell linking through bluetooth.

Me too. I have five cell phones in my house and two of them are mine. One for personal and the other for work. I was able to pair up my personal phone and set my business cell to forward to my personal phone so I in effect now have three (including the hubbies) setup on this system. I guess the kids will have to manage on their own. We don't have a land line. I'm surprised there are not more of these device. I hate it when my cell is downstairs and I'm upstairs. If I hear the phone, I make the mad dash.

It works perfectly as a landline only....but you have that optional cell phone feature should you ever have the need for it

It connects to landline. You could use majic jack or similar product if you have wi fi available. Otherwise you're better off spending the extra to get a system that uses cellular dialer, althoigh then you get charged a monthly fee for service.

These phones were replacements for my telephone system so I don't know if they work without the system. Even my jacks in the location ONLY work with systems phones. I do not use batteries with these phones. They must be wired thru the electrical system because when there is a power failure the phones don't work. (maybe just line 1, I believe)

It works via bluetooth so unless your landline has bluetooth it will not work.

Hello,You only need a land line or internet line if you want the system to call you. The system can call any number the phone service it is connected to can call.Thanks!www.FortressSecurityStore.com

I should think so. Just double check that your phone system at home will work with the unit. That would be the only problem.

I don't know if this answers the question but we don't have a land line any more, we switched to OOMA several months ago and this system is working fine with that service.

Does anyone know if this system's autodialer would work over a cellular phone connection instead of a traditional landline connection? I would like to use the system in conjunction with a Phone Labs Dock-N-Talk cellphone docking station as a stand alone connection and not have it tied in to my home telephone system. It would add another level of security in that a cut of the home telephone line outside the house would not affect the system at all.

yes It will work without phone service ,the Tpod will make wifi like a wifi router at home,for your phone to pickup.

No land line is used at all. This product brings in the cellular signal outside and replicates it inside and vice versa.

No it can work without phone, but it wont be able to call you in case of emergency

Hello Peter,You will need to have this system hooked up to a land line, internet line (Vonage, VOIP), or use a sim card if you want the system to dial out.Thanks!www.FortressSecurityStore.com
