Hey!
I'm looking for the following type of application here:
I have 1 computer with 2 modems in it. Each modem is plugged into a different phone line ( line A and line B ).
Whenever a call comes on line A, a software application should automatically dial a fixed number on line B and form a connection between the two ends.
In other words:
call comes into modem, software dials a fixed number on second line, makes the connection and it works as if the caller dialed the end number.
Why do I need this ? I currently use Vonage in an European country so that my North American friends can call me localy. The problem is that this North American phone number is only available at home and not when I'm outside, travelling, etc.
Using call forwarding would require me to set up Vonage to forward calls to an international number and thus it will cost me extra! But, if I can manage to get the incoming Vonage call into a computer, then have the computer dial my local cell phone number and patch the incoming call I would have access to incoming North American calls everywhere and much cheaper too!
Notice I only want this to happen one way, in the direction I described and not the other way around!
So..does anyone know of such a software that would allow me to do this type of connection ?
