Sounds like using FXO option 2 is more reliable. While VOIP is the trend in the industry but putting all the eggs in one basket and relying on the continuance flow of Electricity and Internet service Provider for a medical office is too risky isn't it? Plus the fact that we have DSL in the area no Cable or any other high quality Internet connection. Looking at the specification of SPA3102 sounded like I need one of these for each phone right? Presently we have 3 analog phone lines... One for fax only two others are inter connected so when some body rings the first phone and it is busy it will be rolled to the second phone and second phone will ring. While fax line is also connected to the analog phones and it can be used as regular phone but it is also connected to the Fax machine so by the first ring fax machine will kick in. I assume we need two SPA3102 one for each line and a USB phone for each line and if we need to have these lines in 4 locations if there are no USB phone that can take 2 lines as input then I need 8 phones all over the office right? Plus the USB wiring thru out all the office right? And I think because the length of some of these wires could be longer than 6-8 feet I should expect to lose quality of voice right? Am I right on my assumption and calculations? Waiting to hear from you... Thanks for the reply and advice.

My wife is a physician practicing in Los Angles California. I would like to purchase this IVM software for her office. What I would like to do with this software is to be able to do call screening so I could send and record some of the incoming messages in the mail boxes, for some other that the caller requires live attendant to respond "like call from another Physician office" or "Call to make appointment by patient" I would like to hear telephone ring so the phone can be answered by live person. Can I do this sort of things with IVM? Basically I would rather record an incoming call/message before I hear the ring but on certain condition I would like to hear the phone rings... I read your entire PDF manual but I did not come across to situation that I would like to use your software. Please respond ASAP because I am a serious buyer. Regards Jeffery B. Paarsa
