• No, it comes with a cellular chip included. That's what I liked about this one- still works if my wifi is down and has cellular monitoring. You don't have to buy anything extra (like iris $100 extra equipment for cellular monitoring)

• The base station has a built in cellular modem, which is active with a paid monitoring subscription. You can also use an analog phone line as a backup to the cellular connection.

• No, comes with a SIM card built in, so no land line or cell phone are required for it to function.

• Hi! SimpliSafe can connect through its own dedicated cell service, that doesn't need to connect to yours. This unit, the SimpliSafe Original system, can also be connected via landline as a backup.
