You can be notified of incoming phone calls, and get voice mail messages
while online and when your computer is not running if you sign up to our
BuzMe service (www.buzme.com).

- Can I use RingCentral software with a Cable/DSL modem?
Technically, Cable/DSL adapters are not modems - from the PC's point of view
they are network adapters. Thus, RingCentral does not (and cannot) work with them.
DSL/Cable adapters connect to PC via Network card which carries high-speed traffic
from/to your DSL/Cable box, which connects to the phone line or cable. Low
speed traffic (telephone conversations, dialup connections) is carried by the
regular modem, which should also be connected to the phone line. Even if you
installed DSL or Cable adapter, to use RingCentral you still need to have
regular data/fax or voice modem plugged in to the phone line.
