J john1 Active Member Aug 18, 2010 #22 Hi futiller, Thanks for the interest. Does it work ? I dunno. I gave up. I still think it should work alright, but i dont know enough about modems to do it. What i want the distant modem to do, is answer the phone, and send a small amount of information, as an answer, dictated by its associated PC. **************** The distant PC and modem are many miles away, in Cornwall. The local PC and its modem are here with me. **************** I had thought that the modem contained all that was needed for this. Maybe i was wrong about that. Yes i am still trying to do this. John Click to expand... Things have changed a little, a family member has taken up residence in the Cornwall premises, so there is no need for me to set up any arrangements with a PC there, as i can just phone up and talk. So i am no longer trying to do this. Cheers, John
