Managing Your 911 Address

Use the "Manage 911 Address Profiles" link when you log into the my account section of the www.mcsnet.ca website to specify your physical location. Please read and understand the contained terms of this service as detailed in this section.

It is important to keep your address updated at all times. MCSNet Phone is not tied to your physical location, so you must specify your physical location to provide this information to emergency services. VoIP 911 calling is different than traditional 911 calling because your location is not derived automatically through your phone number. A VoIP 911 call is dispatched through a national emergency call centre first, where it is directed to the nearest response centre after confirming your physical address. Emergency response will be sent to the address that you specify in the "Manage 911 Address Profiles" section if you are not able to speak during the call. The VoIP 911 service will not work if the VoIP or associated Internet service is not connected.

International Call Allowance:

International calls are currently only supported to the UK and Australia. To make an international call, you must allocate funds to this allowance, this can be done by contacting our sales line (1-866-390-3928 option 1). To find out the per minute cost to an international destination, please enter the phone number in the rate calculator.

Network unavailable forwarding is also available to redirect incoming calls in the instance that the Internet becomes unavailable to your phone adapter.
