Good link! Thanks, Martin! Similar to my self-made machine that shorts out the line. ...Jim Thompson

Sure, it's when I get notices from my phone provide for deals or alert messages if you don't have the alert app running.

It'll come up as a call from yourself, and usually their maybe a mail box or text message waiting for you.

WOW, do computers still have modems ??

There's still a few floating about - I even have some in the junk box, there's not much worthy salvage in them other than the power jack.

When you get broadband, you most definitely want to get rid of the modem - some infected websites can plant rogue dialer malware that calls premium rate numbers without telling you.

I still keep mine for the rare occasion somebody insists I send them an actual FAX. Much easier to send them a PDF, but some outfits are still in the dark ages.
