Use PC-Telephone to make unlimited FREE PC-to-PC calls over Internet. Enter in the Phonebar the IP address or name of your contact party's PC and press the Dial button while you are online.

Your IP address is your Internet phone number. Find your current IP address in the IP address combo box (Network-IP options) after establishing the Internet connection.

You can call regular phone/fax numbers from your Internet connection if you place your calls through a PC-Telephone gateway.

Dial in the Phonebar a phone number with the following format: ip_address#phone_number, where "ip_address" is the IP address or name of the PC-Telephone gateway your call is transferred by and "phone_number" is the regular phone/fax number you like to call.

The "phone_number" should consist of only digits.
 

If you have ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) PC-Telephone turns your PC into a digital telephone and you can use it on the same manner as you use your regular phone now.
You can make and receive phone/fax calls to/from any regular phone/fax, either digital or analogue. Use digits only when you dial regular phone/fax numbers from your ISDN connection.
PC-Telephone enables automatically the Network-ISDN options if you have a CAPI 2.0 compliant ISDN card/modem installed.
