Abstract: A method for controlling an IP phone and an application program for the same are disclosed. The application program is installed in a computer for connecting the computer and a proximal IP phone via a wired or wireless network. A subscriber sends data and commands to the proximal IP phone via application programs in the computer for controlling the proximal IP phone. The computer establishes connection with a remote phone via an expanded function of the proximal IP phone controlled by the application program.
Abstract: A modem includes a communicating module, a multimedia terminal adapter (MTA) module, a parsing module, and a selecting module. The communicating module sends a configuration file request packet to a TFTP server to get configuration files including a file ID. The parsing module parses the configuration files to get the file ID. The selecting module configures the MTA module corresponding to the file ID. The communicating module further communicates with a VoIP network according to a protocol corresponding to the file ID.
