Does OBI require dial tone on FXO to attempt to dial?

It is indeed around but more and more carriers are trying to get the requirement repealed.  Here is an article from CA a while back.  I suppose if you have it, take advantage while you can...

ps: I was just doing some reading about it online and in many places there isn't a strict requirement for the telco to provide it and so lines might stay warm until a pair is needed at which point it might stop working without warning.  Would be a good idea to know if your state explicitly requires the telco to provide it or not.  A note to your local PUC will probably get an answer.


That's an interesting article and like it says towards the end, what if there's an accident and no one responds because of what's happening with "warm lines"? Who will get the blame, and responsibility?

I get a "no service is available to complete your call" when trying to access the line (press #) or make a call, when there is no active service on the line port. This includes dialing 911.

While the OBi apparently doesn't look for dialtone, it does look for battery/loop current.
