The caller-id signalling is different for the UK.

There's a rather limited range of modems that support UK caller ID though
there are plenty for the US market (suprise, eh!).

WinIVR's scan of my Modem Blaster reports it as being able to support
callerID, but I don't think my provider (Cable & Wireless) does.  Does
anyone know any different?

I'm probably going to run it off an old laptop running 95.  So far it's
done
just what I need.
