PLACING, RECEIVING AND

8 DISCONNECTING CALLS

 

This chapter covers the following main topics:

 

Placing calls automatically and manually

 

Receiving calls

 

Disconnecting data calls

 

 

Placing Calls

You can place calls from your computer through the ISDN LAN Modem to a

 

remote location either automatically by using one of the service provider

 

connections you set up or manually by entering the telephone number of the

 

destination.

 

3Com assumes no liability for phone charges or other expenses incurred in

 

connection with the use of this product.

 

 

Placing a Call

To place a call using one of the service provider connections you set up, simply

Automatically

launch the application. For example, if an ISP was configured, simply launch your

 

Web browser on your computer to connect to the default location configured in

 

your Web browser.

 

Telephone Number Selection for Data Calls

 

When you place a data call, the ISDN LAN Modem tries to use the second

 

telephone number assigned to your ISDN line in order to leave the first telephone

 

number free for voice calls. In many instances when voice services are added to an

 

ISDN line, they are added only to the first telephone number and not the second

 

telephone number. Because of this, the ISDN LAN Modem tries to use the second

 

telephone number, when available, for data calls.

 

Call Routing Among Service Providers

 

The ISDN LAN Modem automatically calls the first configured service provider. If

 

you configure a second remote connection, such as an additional ISP, and want to

 

use that second profile for an automatic data call, do the following.

1 Access the ISDN LAN Modem’s configuration main page.

2 Choose the Workstation graphic.

3 Select your computer.

4 Associate only the Service Provider that you want to use.
