I see no other way of doing this reliably than to put some kind of GPS device into the VoIP unit.While I agree that GPS is the likely answer, I wasn't expecting the ability to work inside computer rooms and basements.It doesn't need to work in basements, etc. It only needs to keep a record of the last location it was at when the signal faded away. The emergency service vehicles probably can't get any closer than that anyway.
I wonder how that works with VoIP ATA adapters. Last time I looked they didn't work while I was carrying it around in its box from the dealer home. To sum it up: Using GPS to geo-locate VoIP phones or adapters is broken by design. -- Andre
