Two VOIP lines in 1 computer?

Post by Mike111 »

Hey all - Thinking of using this to replace Bell as my local phone. *_BUT_* I have n existing Skype phone which (for reasons I won't go into here) I need to keep. Is there any way the two VOIP services could co-exist in a single computer? If not, how about 2 different computers (a laptop & a desktop) sharing a single DSL internet connection through a router?
Thanx in advance . . . . Mike

Well, though at times may become annoying if their both on at once... The Skyke (I'm assuming) and Freephoneline phones would run off different ports, but if not you can always actually change the ports Freephonelines' software phone send sound out off.

Please be sure to post in the right section as the rules state. As this post is not sharing a device configuration, I have moved it to the appropriate spot.
