As stupid as this may seem ::cough::, how do you test to see if there is voltage on the phone port? Would you plug in a phone that doesn't require a AC power and runs off the voltage from the phone line?

Thanks though... ^_^

I was thinking volt meter, but actually I like your idea of just jacking in a phone and seeing if push-button tones and stuff work, with and without the line-side being plugged in.

It worked, thank goodness. But does that mean it'll work... I just looked on the Asterisk-Users message list and for some reason Tom Rymes messages.

In response to Tom: I'm sure it's not an Digium-anything. It's a cheapo Office Depot replacement for when my original was struck by lightning. As I had said, I'm really not wanting to spend any money. It's not important that I get Asterisk up and running. Allow me to repeat, it's only a hobby box. But you're welcome to give me one... ;)

Logan,

Two things:

1.) Check the make, model, chipset, etc of your modem and figure out if it is an X100P clone. If it is, you can use it to hook up your incoming POTS line to your asterisk server. 2.) If you want to use the phone port of your modem to connect an analog phone to Asterisk as an extension, then it will not work.
