Home phone works perfectly well,  with one exception. 

 

After my home alarm is triggered it dials the monitoring station sent the alert and  then then the line is locked/left open the alarm keeps the line open waiting for something.  Somehow the trigger from the monitoring station to the alarm to disconnect the line is not being received.  The monitoring is done through Telus,  Is it a monitoring station issues or a Koodo home phone issue.

I have to turn the unit off and then back on to get the dial tone back.  That is the only reset.  However once alarm calls the monitoring stations.  It stays open / no dial tone until I turn it off and then back on.
