![]() Maybe its a basic question. But I am trying to find out: Is it possible to dial in using a modem to another Computer behind an "VoIP only" connection? Szenario: home user with an internet contract that provides DSL. The phone line bundled with the contract is established as VoIP. So no "real" land line phone. Is it now possible to create a classic dial in to a server? Extension: would it be possible to do a classic modem-modem call back as well? (all this at low cost - no cisco routers or something) I found some words like modem relay but I am not sure to be on the right track. P |

Nor is it necessarily completely true in this country - you can certainly have ADSL on a line that is provisioned with OCB & ICB. |

Ivor I think he is just asking if VoIP can let him use a POTS modem for end-end communications.. From what I know of VoIP the answer is no, but I am sure something he wants does exist (just see no reason why he would want it) |

P Maybe I'm reading this wrong but why on earth would you want to attempt a modem connection using VoIP when the VoIP is already going to be on a broadband connection anyway? Anyway, the answer is you might be able to get a *very* slow modem connection working (14.4kbps at the most using normal g711 codecs) but even then it's likely to be unreliable. You'd also need to buy an ATA to connect the modem to if you don't already have one, although perhaps you already have a router with an ATA built-in since you've got VoIP with your Internet connection already. cheers, Paul. |

Would T38 fax support be any help here? Does it do anything special regarding faxes, or is it just a way of reliably sending 9600 or 14400 bps traffic over VOIP? Theo |

![]() Maybe I'm reading this wrong but why on earth would you want to attempt a modem connection using VoIP when the VoIP is already going to be on a broadband connection anyway? Some more detail about the szenario: yes, it is a DSL without land line (Germany). plan is to connect a remote place to the internet. the remote place can not have dsl. so the only way is to connect via analog or isdn. being online would cause online minutes to be paid. so the thought is to diel from the remote computer (modem) to a location where dsl is available. get a recall triggered and connect from the dsl-location to the remote place. (the dsl-location has a telephone flat contract so no pay per minute needed) then the dsl-place acts as an ISP routeng web traffic. maybe that is a slow connection. would not be that bad - main thing is being online for free. would using isdn change anything?
