I have not tried that because my thoughts are unless you are running a dual
or quad core processor on an OS that suooprts using all the cores and lots
of memory is that you would slow the PC down so much that it would be very
slow connect rates. In other words the magic jack would be using omputer
resources to get the incoming call then the modem would use more of the
computer resources to process the data then the software reciving the data
would also be using resources where as using a network capable magic jack
you are using less of the computers resources.

Later,
Bill
