As I understood the OP, he wants to use a computer to emulate an ordinary analog phone device. Nothing VoIP, SIP or otherwise Internet-related. Imagine he doesn't even have any Internet connection. A computer which is completely off-line, connected to a phone landline via modem, and acting as a regular, ordinary phone --- it rings when someone tries to call, it dials outgoing calls, and converts audio input/output into electric signals like a normal phone would. Maybe even act as an answering machine (recording voice messages), a fax machine, and such. While I can only imagine *why* the OP would ever want this kind of thing, I believe this could be possible in principle, provided that the modem can send arbitrary analog signal over the wire. If his hardware is ok, it's just a question of whether there is any software that implements this behavior. I have no answer, but would also be quite curious to know myself. :-) HTH, :-) Marko -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
