I have a Skype account with SkypeIn, a feature to receive incoming calls over the Internet.

I want to be able to use a regular telephone to answer calls.

I thought that I may implement that by using a modem with full-duplex voice capability.

I have thought of the following scenarios:

The modem capabable of full-duplex voice would be in the computer connected via telphone cable to telephone.

The modem capabable of full-duplex voice would be in the computer connected via telphone cable to RJ-11 female wall jack. Telephone connected to a different wall jack on the same line for the public switched telephone network could then be used to answer incoming Skye calls.

Are my scenarios easily implementable? Does there appear to be anything wrong with them?

All relevant comments, sugestions, and recomendations welcome.

I am using Windows 2000 Professional with Service Pack 4.

wow sounds complicated.... there is a much simpler way use skype call forwarding. Only thing is that calls that are forwarded are charged to your skype out minutes (you pay for it) just FYI.

See this on how to do it - http://support.skype.com/index.php?_...details&_i=277

Good luck.

I do not wish to use Skype call forwarding. It would become expensive.
