Chapter 3 Connecting the Internet Phone Wizard Hardware

Note: If the Internet Phone Wizard needs to be disconnected from
the computer for any reason, it must be reconnected to the same

USB

port. Connecting the Internet Phone Wizard to a different

USB

port may cause problems.

The Internet Phone Wizard is connected in Single Line mode. Next, go to chapter
4, “Installing the Internet Phone Wizard Software.”

Dual Line Connection

When the Internet Phone Wizard is set up in Dual Line mode, it can make and
receive both Internet (computer-to-computer) calls and regular (computer-to-
land-line-telephone or computer-to-mobile-telephone) calls.

This procedure assumes the computer is connected to a cable modem. If the com-
puter is connected to the Internet via

DSL

modem, see “Dual Line Connection with

DSL

Modem” on page 18.

To connect the Internet Phone Wizard in Dual Line mode:

1. Get the Internet Phone Wizard from its package.

2. Get the

USB

cable from the package and insert the small, square end of the

cable in the “

USB

” port on the rear panel of the Internet Phone Wizard.

3. Insert the other (flat and rectangular) end of the

USB

cable in a

USB

port on

the front or back of a computer.

4. Get the phone cable from the telephone and insert one end in the “Phone”

port on the rear panel of the Internet Phone Wizard.

5. Connect the other end of the phone cable to the telephone.

6. Using the supplied phone cable, insert one end of the cable in the “Line” port

on the rear panel of the Internet Phone Wizard.
