Does Residential service provide access to 911 emergency service? Gizmo5 Residential service includes the 911 service to contact emergency services. All E911 calls are directed to the same location as 911 calls from your traditional landline or mobile phone.

How do I set up E911? Prior to purchasing the Residential service, you will be asked for your home address. After you confirm that the address you have input is correct, and the purchase is completed, that address is now registered to your Gizmo5 account telephone number. To edit your address, go to http://my. gizmo5 .com . Services-> Residential Service-> E911 -> Update Info.

How can I tell if E911 is configured with my correct address? Because your safety is important to us, Gizmo5 has partnered with Dash, a leader in emergency ISP services throughout North America, to bring you Feature 933. By dialing 933 from any Gizmo5 device, you will be able to verify that the 911 system has your most current address and phone number that you have provided to us.

Can I use my own number for the E911 service? We do not port numbers into the Gizmo5 network. However, if you have an alternative number that is already routing calls directly to Gizmo5 that you would like to function with the E911 feature, please email us .

Does my computer need to be on to make or receive calls? If you choose to use the Residential service on your home phone with the suggested adapter, you will not need to have your computer on. To begin making and receiving calls, all that is needed is a high-speed Internet connection, which you can still use if your computer is off. If you choose to answer your calls on your PC, then you will need to have your computer on and have the Gizmo5 application running.

What is the personal conference call line? Residential Service includes your own personal conference call room number. This private room number will enable 2-10 participants to join a call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

How does the personal conference call line work? All landline or mobile participants dial (605) 475-8515, Gizmo5 users dial CONFERENCE. Then when prompted, enter your conference room number.
