Using Isdn Services With Fritz; Going Online With Avm System Drivers - AVM FRITZ!Card PCMCIA Installation Manual

4.4 Using ISDN Services With FRITZ!

ISDN integrates the entire range of telematics services, such
as telephone, telefax, data and video communication, in a
single digital telecommunications network. FRITZ! turns your
computer into a convenient communications hub which pro-
vides all these services.
With FRITZ!Card, you can also use third-party applications
based on CAPI 2.0.
Multiple Subscriber Numbers for the FRITZ! Modules
To receive fax and data calls with FRITZ!, it is not necessary to
assign distinct Multiple Subscriber Numbers (MSNs) to
FRITZ!data and FRITZ!fax, since FRITZ!fax answers calls with
the service indicator for "voice" telephony, while FRITZ!data
responds only to calls with the "data" service indicator.
However, FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!fon both use the "voice" ser-
vice indicator. If you want these modules to respond to calls
meant for them, you must assign distinct MSNs for call ac-
ceptance to FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!fon, and to any telephones
or fax machines connected to any analog extensions. Specify
the settings on the "ISDN" settings page of the respective
modules.
4.5 Going Online With AVM System
Drivers
As an alternative to FRITZ!web, Internet connections can be
established using the AVM system drivers, ISDN CAPI Port
Driver and ISDN NDIS WAN CAPI Driver. Both drivers are con-
trolled over Dial-Up Networking, but use different interfaces
to the Windows system. These system drivers allow you to
use CAPI-based ISDN applications alongside communica-
tions programs that do not have built-in CAPI support.
During the FRITZ! installation you can specify whether you
want to add FRITZ!web to the Startup group. If you select this
option, FRITZ!web is used for every connection to the Inter-
FRITZ!Card – 4 FRITZ!: Internet and ISDN Software
