Hello,

So I have a Motorola SM56 USB Data Fax Modem (aka Apple USB Modem for some people) and according to information online this modem supports V.92, Caller ID, wake-on-ring and most importantly telephone answering (V.253).

At a place I happen to have an old telephone analog line that gets calls and unfortunately I can’t get rid of. Any ideias / links / software on how can I use the modem + a low end box / ARM SBC to “digitize” the phone line into a generic SIP / VOIP that I can then connect to using MicroSIP on another computer?

Thank you.

    If it’s capable of acting like an fxo card then probably yes, with something like asterisk, without knowing more about the modem I would guess no however. You can see here for a forum discussion on the topic.
