SECURITY

[muffett.2008]

Had reason to check my security system this morning.
A spate of firearms thefts had me thinking it was a while since I checked the system.

Well that proved interesting, my system has logged 105 security events.......most of them in the last two weeks????

The problem.....phone line cuts.
Well, that had me going, why hadn't my security company contacted me, surely this would have been obvious, and what was the cause???

Well, it seems I can thank the Government and the nation wide NBN system, since it has been installed, my computer has dropped out 103 times, as the phone now is a voip system that means my phone drops out too........great! and guess what, it will cost me an arm and a leg to fix it.

The Security crowd are overwhelmed with false alarms created by the new system, they are trying to find a workaround, but no luck without expense.

The big problem is that the line cut requirement is a legal one, so there are a lot of people currently in breach of the regulations, the registry are burying their heads in the sand, as are the connection providers.

It will be interesting to see how this requirement pans out.
