specifically, i am trying to configure a way to use a wifi phone with my optimum voice(ov) by cablevision account so that i will have "hotspot"connectivity through my home phone connection. although cablevision claims that it's ov service is "voip", it is not really. they use an intergrated optimum online(ool) and ov cable modem to route the 2 signals separately over the same cable at different bandwidths. the ov signal never crosses onto the ool signal so it is never truly on the internet protocol and can not be accessed from the internet. i would like to find a device that coverts it over or bridges it onto the internet so that it could be accesssed wirelessly. any ideas? maybe quicklogic has a solution, arcticlink?
i do realize that ov is also not a true landline either although it incorporates landline equipment and inhouse wiring into its system. it is a sort of hybrid system that i will call "cablelandline" or simply "cableline".
i envision a device and software that connects my landline and/or cableline to my to my home 802.11b/g wireless router and recognizes me as the serviceprovider subscriber, i.e. my home telephone # for 2-way calling from wifi "hotspots" or access points.
