Using WinXPHome, IE & OE. I use a simple dial-up connection to access the
internet. When I am connected to the internet any other incoming phone
calls to my house does not drop my internet connection. I want to change
this so that my intenet connection is broken and I can answer any incoming
calls. How do I do this?

Also, are there any free downloadable programs that can help solve my one
telephone line limitations. I cannot afford dsl or cable. Thanks in
advance for any and all help! Fran
 
Hi Fran,

In order to do this you must have a V92 modem and your ISP must support V92
than you need call waiting to make it all work.

Perhaps the cheapest method would be to get a second phone line. Ask your
phone co. how much.
 
If you are in Australia, you can just set your phone to "divert when
engaged", & set it to divert to your mobile. (or your neighbour if he
doesn't mind..... lol)
