People have had a choice they can choose to cook their Brains with wireless everything or not
BUT
We are being FORCED into a digital wireless world where all that’s
ALIVE is being phased out in favor of cyborgs, robots that can withstand the Electrified Environment – 

A PLAN WITHIN THE GLOBAL RESET

TERRAFORMING TO THE EXCLUSION of HUMANS, ANIMALS, PLANTS and ALL that is ALIVE as WE Know it TODAY. 

THE GOAL – CONTROL OF OUR MINDS

The technology that currently powers landline telephones is to be switched off in 2025 
The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)

Initially, PSTN copper cables also carried internet connections into people’s homes.
But this has increasingly been replaced by fibre-optic cable. 

Internet communications also mean landlines themselves have become less popular.
Once the PSTN is completely switched off, if not before, you will be unable to
make a phone call via a landline with no internet connection.

And you can continue using an existing analogue service unless upgrading or
switching providers. 
BUT, after 2025, this will eventually be phased out completely.

Internet revamp for the humble landline – BBC News

What if there is a power cut? 

THE POWER GRID ‘WILL’ GO DOWN = INTENTIONALLY

Remember:  Lithium Ion Batteries are a WEAPON – THEY DEGENERATE and EXPLODE 
NOTE:  LITHIUM ION BATTERIES MUST NOT BE USED IN THIS INTENTIONALLY WARMED UP CLIMATE.  ONLY USE SILICON GEL BATTERIES.Old landline phones receive power via the line itself, which is separate to the
household mains electricity supply, and often remain functional even during a power cut. 

Internet-based phones, however, rely on home routers or similar devices. 
Ofcom requires phone operators to come up with back-up solutions, to
ensure people can call emergency services.

Virgin, for example, intends to offer battery-powered back-up lines
to customers with accessibility needs or who cannot rely on a
mobile phone during a power cut. 

The battery provides 24 hours of standby and one hour of talk time.
And an engineer will install a small box in the customer’s home so they can connect.
Besides landline phones, lots of systems currently rely on the PSTN, including:

  • home burglar alarms and security systems 
  • public traffic lights
  • cash machines
  • railway signals 
  • motorway signs
And they will all have to switch to fully digital alternatives.
“All of these services are dependent on the voltage
supplied by the PSTN – and all will need local batteries in
addition to an internet connection, once the network closes,
with some requiring more complex solutions,”
the Crown Commercial Service notes in an article published online last year.

Internet revamp for the humble landline

The technology that currently powers landline telephones is to be switched off in 2025 – but don’t panic, you will still be able to have a handset in the hallway should you wish.The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is a modern version of 19th Century technology – it is what brings the connection into your home via a copper cable – but its days are numbered, according to Openreach, which has already begun work on the switchover.
Landline operators in the UK will switch every home phone in the UK to an internet-based connection instead of traditional, copper-wire landlines. A total of 14 million lines are affected.
Here is what we know about how it will all work.

What’s happening to the old landline network?

PSTNs around the world have been modernised many times but still work on the same principle – establishing direct connections between telephones via an intermediary exchange.

Telephone wires have been around for more than 100 years
Initially, PSTN copper cables also carried internet connections into people’s homes.
But this has increasingly been replaced by fibre-optic cable.
Internet communications also mean landlines themselves have become less popular.
And a survey, in April, suggested 40% of people in the UK had stopped using them altogether.
Telecoms companies also say old PSTN equipment is costly to maintain and call quality could be improved by routing landline calls via internet connections instead.
“The traditional analogue landline signal is carried over copper – that’s what it is,” James Barford, of Enders Analysis, says.
“And so if you go to fibre, you have to do something else and [voice over internet protocol (VOIP)] is the obvious thing.”
Old landline phones will still work after the network changes, however.
And unless moving to a different part of the country, most people will retain the same phone number.
Handsets will not need replacing either – existing phones will be connected to a different system behind the scenes.
But you may have to plug your phone in to your internet router or a new wall socket.

When will it happen?

Openreach, which manages the UK’s phone and internet network, has already begun switching people over to VOIP connections.
The company launched a trial in Mildenhall, Suffolk, earlier this year.
New landline customers there can purchase VOIP connections only.
And Openreach is planning hundreds of similar trials for exchanges in towns across the UK, this year and next.

Will I need an internet connection to use my landline phone?

Once the PSTN is completely switched off, if not before, you will be unable to make a phone call via a landline with no internet connection.
You will be able to use your existing broadband connection for landline services, however.
And if you have no broadband internet connection, you should, according to telecoms regulator Ofcom, be given the option to buy a simple connection, rather than having to pay for high-speed services.

What if I cannot access a broadband connection in my area?

“Nobody will find themselves being cut off,” an Openreach representative says.
And you can continue using an existing analogue service unless upgrading or switching providers. BUT, after 2025, this will eventually be phased out completely.
Ofcom says 2% of homes in the UK are unable to access a basic 10Mbps broadband connection.
But Ben Wood, of CCS Insight, says: “For the vast majority of people, the landline is now just an annoying tax they have to pay when they want internet access.”

Will internet-based calls be less reliable?

Many businesses have already had VOIP phone systems for some time.
And customers should not notice a drop in quality compared with the PSTN system, Mr Barford says.
“They should be at least as good, possibly better,” he says.
After the digital-TV switchover, some viewers noticed blockiness in their picture.
But voice calls require a relatively tiny amount of data.
And modern internet connections should be able to handle them well.

Telephone Landlines Days Are NumberedWhat will replace landlines?Over the next few years, all landline phones will be placed with a digital network, also known as an IP network.

CONFUSED ABOUT THESE DATES?
How much longer will landlines be around?
No one can say when the final step will be taken, but most in the industry expect that within about 10 years, the U.S. landline telephone networks will no longer exist, April 27, 2017

As of 2017, it was estimated that landline service could be shut down within five years (i.e. 2022). Jul 23, 2021

Traditional landline phone service in the United States is declining in some areas. For example, AT&T has plans to speed up the end of traditional landline phone service in Illinois, according to the Chicago Tribune.
The elimination of landline phone service may impact many people in the United States. A 2019 survey found that approximately 6.3 million people (approximately 2.5% of U.S. adults) had a landline and no cellular phone service. Living in a household with a landline only is most common in older people: Approximately 11.4% of adults aged 65 and older only had a landline. Even if you have no landline service yourself, consider whether older family members may rely on traditional phone service and need guidance about changing to a different service.  
To understand this change, let’s look at the state of landline service in Illinois and Alaska.

Declining support for traditional landline phone service in Illinois.

In 2017, AT&T sought to shut down its “aging voice-only network” in Illinois and move customers to wireless and internet-based service. At that time, AT&T had approximately 1.2 million landline phone lines in Illinois: Approximately 39.5% (474,000 out of 1.2 million) were residential customers, and the rest were businesses. As of 2017, it was estimated that landline service could be shut down within five years (i.e., 2022). That’s not all. AT&T started sending notices announcing the end of a subsidy for low-income landline phone subscribers in 2018.

Alaska reduces subsidy charges for landline-only phone service.

Since 1999, the Alaska Regulatory Commission has been charging a mandatory fee on phone service known as the Alaska Universal Service Fund., The charge is intended to fund infrastructure and provide service to low-income Alaskans. In the beginning, the charge was only 1.9 percent of the bill, but steadily increased to 19 percent in 2018 as more Alaskans switched to cellular phones.
In 2019, the Commission lowered the subsidy charge and placed a 10% cap on it. For example, an Anchorage customer paying $19 per month for basic landline phone service would see their monthly subsidy charge go down from $3.61 to $1.90. However, along with the cap came the news that some of the services funded by the subsidy would end, as would the subsidy itself by 2023.

Shifting resources to wireless service.

Already, 20 states have permitted AT&T to end landline phone service. In addition, AT&T stopped accepting requests to install DSL internet service, which is based on phone lines, in late 2020.
To understand where the future of phone service is, simply look at where companies are investing their resources. In 2020, the average smartphone user in the United States consumed 9.2 gigabytes of data per month, up from 6.6 gigabytes in 2019. To keep up with this increasing demand for wireless service, the industry has invested more than $280 billion from 2010 to 2020, according to CTIA, a group that represents the U.S. wireless communications industry.

Know your alternatives to traditional phone line service.

It’s difficult to say precisely when traditional copper phone line service will disappear in the United States. However, it is clear that companies are putting substantial resources into newer technologies like wireless. As mentioned above, several governments have reduced their support for traditional phone services.
Rather than wait for a phone provider to shut off your phone service, take some time to learn about the alternative phone options.

1.Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)

In the U.S., there were approximately 117 million VoIP lines in 2018, which was up from approximately 34 million in 2010. The growth in VoIP was likely due to a few factors, including better service and affordability. In terms of service, you may be able to get a good deal on long-distance service with VoIP. The Ooma Premier plan offers unlimited calling to the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Regarding affordability, PC Magazine recently pointed out several VoIP providers that charge less than $20 per month, including 1-VoIP, AXvoice and Ooma.
What else should you consider before choosing a VoIP provider?
In addition to the monthly price, there are a few more factors to consider before choosing a VoIP provider.
  • Does the VoIP service provider offer 911 service? Look for a VoIP provider that includes features like a backup battery so you can always connect to 911 when you need it.
  • Is the VoIP service portable? For example, check if the VoIP provider lets you access the phone service through a laptop computer or mobile device.
  • Does the VoIP service come with its internet connection? If your primary internet service happens to go offline during a storm, you might lose your phone service. However, some VoIP providers, like the Ooma Telo 4G Safety Phone, have built-in cellular service so you can stay connected.
  • What is the VoIP provider’s reputation? Look up the provider in an industry publication like PCMag. In 2021, PCMag stated the following scores for call quality: Ooma (9.1 out of 10) and RingCentral (8.9 out of 10) in their review of business VoIP providers.

2.Cellular phones

Approximately 97% of Americans have a cell phone as of February 2021, and approximately 85% own a smartphone, according to the Pew Research Center. Using a cellular phone may be an excellent option to stay connected. Further, newer technology like 5G technology already covers approximately three-quarters of the U.S. population as of early 2021.
What else should you consider before choosing a wireless phone?
  • What is included in the monthly cellular price? For example, take a look at the calling minutes and data to make sure the plan meets your needs.
  • How much of the country is covered by the cellular provider? Some cellular providers have coverage for less than 70% of the U.S. Before signing up, check to see if the provider has coverage for your area and areas you typically visit.

The end of landline phones doesn’t mean the end of the phone call.

Landline phones may be declining, but you have choices to make phone calls. As phone providers move more resources into newer technologies like 5G, it may be wise to move away from a traditional phone service. You might also find that you can get a better price by switching your phone service. Take control of your phone service by looking at your options now.
