Only if they shell out for the modem, but they are darned easy to program at

They send CID just fine to any decent receive.  I've got about 50 of them
on-line.  Half are CID on my lines, and half are DMP format on CS lines.
Both work just fine.

Ah, there is the rub.  Interent connectivity is fairly proprietary, I know
Napco's is.  Still a decent CS should atleast be considering it.
