Thanks all, Jared, sorry I forgot about out-of-band touch tones and should of specified better, the client was looking to use a modem like most guessed. I suggested using a cellular option since POTS wasn't available, as most gear usually has that as an option, and it looks like US Robotics makes a serial connection modem at that. I do remember though something about a modem over VoIP protocol being developed, something like Jay was saying about Faxing over VoIP, but I guess it never took off. My guess being relying on the same line as an internet connection would be about that smart anyways. Sincerely, Eric Tykwinski TrueNet, Inc.

As others have said modems require POTS or at least a PBX line. Also isn’t the hand-off fog VoIP ethernet? You wouldn’t be able to stick that into the RJ-11 port in the modem. It would be easier to use the comcast internet connection with some sort of IPsec tunnel for OOB. It’s cheap and mostly reliable. If you’re looking for a better solution see the thread on OOB gear RE: opengear. They are multi-port and support, POTS, wifi and 3G for access.
