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.
