Simply plug the modem's telephone cable into one of TalkSwitch's extension
jacks. Your modem is now a TalkSwitch extension and will be able to access all
Lines and take advantage of TalkSwitch's call routing features.
If you would like to use a telephone on the same extension as your modem,
simply plug the telephone's cable into the modem's telephone jack. (Most

your modem to be functional.
