This chapter explains how to physically connect IPW to a tele- phone and phone line. There are two basic ways to connect IPW: Single-Line or Dual-Line.

Caution: Make sure the IPW is not connected to the computer until instructed to do so by IPW installation program (see chapter 4, “Installing IPW Software”).

Single-Line Connection

When IPW is in Single-Line mode, it can be used to make or re- ceive Internet (computer-to-computer) phone calls using Skype only. It cannot make regular calls to regular (land-line or mobile) telephones while in Single-Line mode.

To connect IPW in Single-Line mode:

1.Get the phone cable from the telephone and insert one end in the “Phone” port on the rear panel of IPW.

2.Connect the other end of the phone cable to the telephone. The components should be connected similarly to the figure below:
