Dean,
The call out facility that I think you are talking about was, last time I
looked, called 'Remote Activation'. Quite simply the router would look for
CLI showing an incoming call from a specific number, once recognised this
would trigger dial out to the Internet only.
This will not work with a Home Highway line as that does not offer CLIP on
the ISDN service. This is the problem I would face if I wanted to use this
feature on mine. The only way around it I could think of was to have a
meteor or something similar interfaced to my HomeSeer machine with HomeSeer
triggering a dial out on recognising the particular number I would use.
There are problems with this though. What if I wanted to trigger dial out
without causing the home phone to ring - ok put it on the second number on
the Home Highway, but, do I really want to invest in a second CLI device
just for this??
Regards
David
