I have a Huawei sterlite modem connected to a dlink lan card.the bsnl line comes to splitter one goes to modem other goes to phone.

Now i want to make use of the telephone line to call INDIAN MOBILE NOS. frm pc via adsl modem using a headphone.

Is there any dialer software to do it?
If not whts the exact way around?

Yes. You can do it via Skype or Yahoo! Mobile. But it is not free.

Skype server is located in Luxembourg. So sitting in India, when you make a Skype call to anywhere else, it is treated as a call from Luxembourg to that country. A call by Skype, to any Indian mobile telephone will cost 15c per minute.

Yahoo server is located in USA. So sitting in India, when you make a Yahoo call to anywhere else, it is treated as a call from USA to that country. A call by Yahoo to Indian mobiles will cost 8c per minute.

Whether, you use Skype or Yahoo, you will have to open an account and deposit credit into the account to make the call.

There are other options as well - such as Vonage VOIP phone. But everything costs money.

There are many posts in the internet and in this forum as well that there are free services available. Do not believe any of them. All Indian operators will charge call termination charges. Hence nothing will be free.

I came across Free Call - Free International Calls & Free VoIP Service. Internet phone calls - free VoIP, call PC to phone over Internet telephony some months ago, maybe u could give it a try.

You can also try JAXTR, there call rate is just rs 1.02 only.

but i am using the phone line.i am just meaning i want to do a simple phone call without using the phone set instead using my pc.i know its not free.i want to use my bsnl phone line but i dont want to use the phone set.

n case of dial up modem i heard in place of that number 172222like tht which we used to connect to net if u type any other number it will connect to tht phone and it will be done as if ur calling frm ur landline and chges will be accordingly billed.

172222 is used for accessing Netone services of BSNL. Its basically an account free internet service, by which anyone having a bsnl landline and a dialup modem can connect to the internet. The usage charges will be billed in the succeeding bill. I am unsure about what u have listed about netone.

And answering the second part of the query, DSL modem can be used for VOIP services, but u need to have an account with a VOIP provider. It cannot be done on-the-fly as asked by u.

Yes u have to pay amount if u want to use ur dsl modem for voip services in india it is not started .but it will start soon. And if u want use voip now than u can use forign service provider like yahoo,skype and many more as rameshjeee already said..

You are not a BSNL employee.

Hope you got the info from the Communications Minister.!
Or

I am using VOIP service without paying a single paise extra
to BSNL or anybody else here in INDIA!
and it is used H24 ( except 0000AM-0600AM), like a regular phone , and even when the computer is off.

Do u mean u want to make a normal PSTN to PSTN call but instead of using the handset provided by BSNL u want to use ur laptop/PC?

If thats ur requirement, then simply connect the phone line coming out of the splitter to ur Laptop (in the dial-up modem port) instead of the BSNL instrument. And use the Dialer available within windows, type in the no. u want to call and press call. (u also need a std. headset to listen & talk).

The ADSL Modem is for data only and can not support normal Voice call.
