2 Phone lines needed?

My dad would go crazy - if he missed any incoming phonecalls. I have 2 lines at the minute but is there any way of just using one.

V.92 standard has a feature that will notify you of incoming calls while you are on the net. Ask on the Net/Comms forum.

What is V.92?

What would you need to hook it up to your computer?

Check out http://www.v92.com/
All you need is a v92 modem and an ISP that supports it.
No ISPs here are fully supporting it though afaik

(wrong info fixed

Sorry, my mistake. UTV support it, but the last I saw of it on that UTV thread on IrelandOffline not all the access servers had been upgraded to v92.

eircom said they would support it too (bout 6 months ago)

Is anybody using it? Do you just plug in the modem to a port on your pc?

I'm not using it
