2.Connect the other end of the phone cable to the telephone.

3.Optional: To make and receive normal calls while the computer is powered down, use the supplied phone cable and insert one end of the cable in the “Line” port on the rear panel of IPW.

4.Optional: Insert the other end of the phone cable in the “Phone” port of the dial-up modem. The components should be connected similarly to the figure below:

When IPW is set up in Dual-Line mode, it can make and receive both Internet (computer-to-computer) calls and regular (comput- er-to-land-line telephone or computer-to-mobile telephone) calls.

This procedure assumes the computer is connected to a cable modem. If the computer is connected to the Internet via DSL mo- dem, see “Dual-Line Connection with DSL Modem” on page 16.
