Voicemodem as a remote telephone line

[aniello]

Now that almost everyone has a broadband connection to the internet and for sure most of us have also a voice modem connected to a telephone line I was figuring if there is an application that allows to reach a computer from a remote one via the broadband connection to the Internet and use the modem as a remote telephone line to make voice calls. For example, if I am in a business trip or established for some time in another place i/e in a foreign country for a wile I would like to know if there is a software/hardware that permits me to have a remote phone extension connected to mi travel laptop that can make calls using mi office phone line connected to my main desktop computer being both the computers connected to the Internet via a broadband connection.

I will thank in advance if someone can give me some help this way.

Yes this is possible, but not with a regular voice modem.

 

This set-up would require:

1) Either a FXO adapter (such as the Linksys 3102) OR a Telephony Board

2) NCH's free Axon PBX software for your office computer

3) NCH's basic (free) or business edition Express Talk software for your laptop AND (optionally) USB Phone OR a compatible SIP Phone or ATA device.

It basically works like so:

The FXO adapter connects to your phone line. Axon is set-up with the FXO adapter to use it as an External phone line. (The FXO adapter converts the Analogue line to VoIP so it can be used by Axon to make/take calls over the local network or Internet). The Express Talk softphone OR other SIP hardware you are using in the remote location will then need to be configured with an Extension in Axon. After proper configuration, you will be able to use the analogue phone line at your office from any remote destination with an Internet Connection that has the appropriate ports opened on the router's Firewall.
