Use Caller ID to route Phone Call
Use Caller ID to route Phone Call
(OP)
I am looking for a device that uses Caller ID to route an incoming phone call to a modem or FAX.
The idea device would be capable of storing a group (20-100) phone numbers representing valid numbers to be routed to the modem. All incoming calls with numbers not appearing in the group would pass through to a telephone. Incoming calls should be answered and routed by the device prior to ringing a telephone.
The device should be a stand-alone unit not connected to a PC.
I have searched the Internet but could not find a stand-alone device.

or PC. Perhaps it could use DTMF for programming in some way.
Will you need to formard the caller ID down to the routed phone or terminal device?
Depending on the line length and equipment after this router, the routing process might trip ring during switching thus dropping the call.
Good luck.
