What Happens to VoIP Phones If Internet Goes Down?
With 100% Canadian-owned cloud VoIP from BaronTEL, calls automatically redirect to mobile apps like Bria, cell phones, or Voicemail Anywhere within 2 seconds. Because your phone system lives in Canadian data centres (not your office), it keeps working even when your local internet fails. Unlike Canadian-branded services that white-label foreign technology, Canadian-owned providers keep your data in Canada with 5-7 business day porting and zero downtime.
How VoIP Failover Works
1. Normal Operation
Calls ring your desk phones over the internet. Everything works normally with HD voice quality through Canadian data centres.
2. Outage Detected
System detects your desk phone is unreachable. Within 2 seconds, it automatically tries your other registered devices.
3. Instant Redirect
Calls route to mobile apps like Bria, cell phone, or Voicemail Anywhere. Callers just hear normal ringing — they never know.
4. Internet Restored
Calls automatically return to desk phones when internet comes back. Seamless transition with no action required from you.
Simultaneous Ring
All devices ring at once — desk phone, mobile app, softphone. First device to answer takes the call. Never miss a call.
Sequential Ring
Try desk phone first, then mobile app, then cell forward. You control the order. Customize per extension or per employee.

VoIP Failover FAQs
VoIP Failover and Business Phone Reliability in Canada
The most common question about VoIP is “What happens if my internet goes down?” The answer with cloud-based VoIP is actually better than traditional phone lines — calls automatically redirect to mobile apps like Bria, cell phones, or Voicemail Anywhere within seconds. Your phone system runs in redundant data centres with backup power, independent of your office infrastructure.
An important distinction exists between VoIP providers that are truly Canadian-owned versus those carrying Canadian telecom brands. Some Canadian-branded services are powered by foreign technology companies — when you sign up, your business communications data may route through foreign infrastructure and is subject to foreign data laws including foreign surveillance legislation.
BaronTEL delivers 100% Canadian-owned VoIP with automatic failover to mobile apps like Bria, Voicemail Anywhere with email delivery, Custom Hold Messaging, auto-attendant, call recording with Canadian storage, and 5-7 business day number porting with zero downtime. Cloud VoIP is actually more reliable than traditional phone lines because your phone system is not dependent on your office infrastructure — it keeps running in Canadian data centres even during local power outages, internet failures, or building emergencies. Plans start at $16.95/user/month with no contracts required.
