Dial up

I just know this thread is going to get wise guy remarks.

But I have a neighbor who wants to be able to use her dial up PC and still know when a phone call is arriving and if possible answer the call.

Dial up is her only option due to location and very limited funds.

Is there a free program on Major Geeks to accomplish this?

All help is greatly appreciated.

 

i don't know anything but this is the closets i think you can get. http://www.pagoo.com

 

I got the cable, been a while since the days of dialup. Here a few links that might help you, some are one time pay software and some are free. I think.

And I have to have a Major Geeks link in there somewhere:

not really an answer, but here goes. when i had dial up i kept wondering why i kept getting kicked off. after a while i figured out that i had incoming calls (sometimes it wouldn't ring after i got kicked off). basically i had call waiting, so when the phone rang, sometimes (not always) i would get kicked off. so i wound up disabling call waiting whenever i got on line. g/l, sos

 

Is V.92 dial up available where you are ?

As far as I know it is not available in Australia, but I assumed it would be available in a lot of other countries

It allows you to be online and make phone calls at the same time

 

I will check all suggestions.

Thank you
