Note my configuration is using the OmniPro 2 panel.
1 - transport will not be changing
2 - configure new dial out number
3 - put the new account in test mode
4 - test the panel / dial out.
Here went to using primary Ooma line from the old copper line a couple of years back.
I also switched to a monthly from a yearly account last year when I noticed that I could never speak to anyone at Next Alarm and had to do my requests via email. This was relating to testing. So I was already on my way out to switching providers. Relating to the central station monitoring from Next Alarm didn't have any issues. I just procrastinated on the switch.
I DIY'd a back up cellular connection (still 3G) which is the back up of the back up for the phone stuff here.
Personally here it will probably just be changing the dial out number to the Alarm Relay central monitoring number and using their messaging options which would make it the same as the Next Alarm configuration.
Rest of the stuff will remain the same. The telco stuff / transport / VOIP / Modem / switches / firewall are all on UPS here.
I would call alarm relay relating to transport options.
Here got an an unlimited SIM from T-Mobile for $20 / month a few years back. This is used for the back up telephone (alarm transport) and Internet and only tested to work.
