Ok folks..Here is my situation. I have the KX-T824 installed on two VOIP lines and a cell to landline adapter. The KSU is 40 feet away from the desktop computer I wish to perform general maint/programming from. The distance is beyond the limits of the USB line. When I had regular copper I simply added an SLT POTS extension in my office, plugged the extension into the desktop modem and 8,2 to grab a line and called in on my primary, waited for the AA to grab the line and 729ed my way in. Now with VOIP even at 2400 baud it doesn't cut it. Brainstorming is there any other way hopefully by internal extension can I get my programming abilities back up? I have available unused COs to tinker with if there is a device out there for this...Thanks!!!

can you dial 729 on ICM and get modem? If so do that.

Since the 824 is analog, you might try looping an extension to your trunk and dialing in via DISA. You can't directly access 729 from internal.

If you don't have a spare extension, a ringdown circuit like the Viking Electronics DLE-200 series would do the trick.

You can get usb over copper extenders
