Dial up modems ? Do they even still exist ?

Sounds like the stone-ages.

Hah, the one called "Call not completed as dialed" form Bell is used in the Kraftwerk song The Telephone Call. :)

Years ago when I had dial up there was a free program that did basically the same thing as this one, just no audio alerts.
I cant remember the name, I think it was "call wave" (?)
It was very neat.


Edit: The CallWave is still around, but it's not free anymore:

Another edit: They charge 7.95 a month??? It was neat, but not THAT neat!!!!

been using this for years, and still am. I like blocking all marketers and any others who keep calling an leaving msgs.

One thing you gonna make sure is that, your modem must ba capable of CALLER ID. All modem installed/bought before are NOT CALLER ID capable. So chances are, your modem right now is NOT one of them.

If you need to buy one, LMK and I'll tell the exact brand i'm using.
