However - if someone picks up the phone, and the modem gets disconnected, it goes into "modem idle" mode. doh! It seems to think that the RED interface is still active (when it's damn well been disconnected), and won't go back to the "waiting for dial on demand" state until you first issue a 'disconnect' (so it thinks the RED interface is down) and then 'connect' from the web interface. This is most annoying, as it means every time we go to use it someone needs to manually put it into "waiting for dial on demand" mode before it can be used as "dial on demand" again - kinda defeats the purose, no?


I recommend a telephone privacy adaptor. Basically it's a special telephone double
adaptor that cuts off one socket when the other is in use. If you want to see what one
looks like go to www.dse.co.nz and do a search on part F9772.
