Re: receiving phone calls and connecting to dial up simultaneously
being able to receive phone calls while on the internet via dial up will be tricky like faizy said.
Its been ages but what I did was the following
in the dial-up settings, use "*70," in front of the dialup number - applies to U.S.A only. This will disable your call waiting feature. Without doing that, the call waiting feature will most likely disconnect your connection. When the call waiting feature is disabled, the caller will recieve busy signal if you don't have a voice mail feature setup on ur phone line.
get a voicemail on ur phone line thru ur local phone carrier. this way, the person calling will not get a busy signal and he will get ur voicemail and you will not miss the call
