| 1130782 | 2010-08-22 23:33:00 | Can this be easily done? | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 1130783 | 2010-08-23 00:11:00 | I know dial up modems can detect incoming calls while you arte connected via the d.u modem, and software can display the callers number, but im not sure whether or not this can be done when the modem is NOT connected to the internet www.pcmech.com |

| 1130784 | 2010-08-23 00:16:00 | You can do this through soft-phone software plugged directly into the DSL modem. Google for it you will find tons available. Also if interested you can set up a IVR and redirects on your home line through the same software without paying for the service from your Telco. |

| 1130786 | 2010-08-23 07:10:00 | It's also worth noting that a few months of power to run this beast will probably cost more than buying a new CID-capable phone anyway. | Erayd (23) | ||
| 1130787 | 2010-08-23 07:53:00 | I have set it up but am not sure if it is working right, or it might be my cellphones causing problems. Will try again tomorrow. | nedkelly (9059) | ||
