This might be just what I am looking for.  However, how do I connect to
the phone?  The phone is able to connect to the host fine it seems.

Actually, my whole thinking on this was a little off.  If the host goes
down, I won't be able to use the modem to connect to the ILO/RSB.

The reason we are considering this is because the servers are going to be
at remote client sites where we have no control over the network and
placing a DSL or other hard lines are not desirable.
