Speaking of the nitty gritty what are PM's restrictions if any on forwarding time limits?
That's what I got from them like 3years ago..but model 721..guess they upgraded to 723....same price also $5 a month for a year but looks like price went up a bit for device. I paid $50 it's $65 now.

@Luddite It seems that Koodo is currently offering the ZTE WF723 Wireless Home Phone
Might I also add that Koodo's 1 year promo offering service for 5$/Month seems like quite the deal [Again this is not an endorsement of the product or service]

The one issue I have..is if power goes out. The ZTE has a back up power that last for like 12 hours so no problem there but the cordless phones is the problem as there is no backup power for the base unit so the phones don't work.
@Jb456What model are you using? My ZTE MF279T Rocket Hub lasts about 48 hours on standby when useing battery power.
What it even has a battery? wow! So this works in a black out?
I take it these devices would send a high voltage pulse on the line so that really old bell phones would still ring?
I don't know if it provides enough power to make those old phones that have a real mechanical bell in them but is works just fine with my AT&T CL2909 and most other semi-modern phones I have tested.
I use a phone like that when power is out. Of course no caller id but it works (cause you need power plug for caller id)

Yes, as previously mentioned a SIM card is required for the device to operate.

Yes, it should work as long as it is unlocked, keep in mind you may need to login to the control panel and change the APN settings.

This device allows you to plug in a traditional homephone/fax as well as create a wifi network with the data included on your plan. They can be purchased for less than 50$ on Kijiji (used) or you can find them on Aliexpress for about 75$ (new).
I also use a GlocalMe SIM-BOX
This device plugs into your modem/router via ethernet and turns your Public Mobile SIM accessible through VOIP via an app you use on your phone (there are also unofficial workarounds for acessing it on a tablet or computer). I have used it in the past to have access to my Public Mobile texts and calls when travelling internationally.
