<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for the input David, Bevan & Jared, also to the many others that responded privately.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The call home idea is a good one Jared. One big advantage is the ability to be a bit carrier agnostic and use the provider with the best signal strength in the area. Mikrotik also do a bunch of gear with LTE support which seems to be pretty
flexible. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would prefer the public address delivered direct to the endpoint though (less moving parts… got to hate VPN lockups).<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Far out Bevan $80k in OOB connections! We’re a touch shy of that.. eh hem..
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Had I known how popular a topic this was I would not have worried about creating noise on the list!<u></u><u></u></p>
