Re: How do I wire up a PC modem to dial a POTS phone line?

The computer is a laptop without the usual two RJ11 jacks on the
built-in modem. Just one.

I have a PC name database application that will dial numbers for me
(and keep call records as a result, which is the real win).

Can I wire tip and ring for the laptop and the phone in paralled?

FWIW, the application uses TAPI. For incomming calls I can configure
the laptop not to answer.

Thanks
There is an adapter that has one male RJ11 plug and 2 or more female RJ11 jacks, you can get them at Radio Shack and other places.
