Hi all,
Subject line says it all really...
I have an ntl line and want to get the Caller ID data into the PC for
distribution to various devices (Tivo, Squeezebox, HV etc...).
Unfortunately, the old modem I have (Pace Solo 56) only supports BT caller
ID and, it turns out, not many modems support the format that ntl use.
As far as I can see, I have 3 options:
1. Find a modem that supports ntl's caller ID - there are some listed here:
http://www.uk-software.com/whocallingmodems.html
2. Mod an existing caller ID device - similar to:
http://www.eatworms.org.uk/ha/callerid.php
3. Find some kind of inline converter which would translate the caller ID
data into BT's standard so that I can feed it into my existing modem. I
very
much doubt whether something like this exists.
Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas on the best way forward with
this...?
Anyone else with an ntl line managed to get Caller ID data into the PC...?
Many thanks,
Andy.
