I have set up call forwarding to my mobile phone; its voice mail service captures any messages - this means I only go to one location for voice mail recovery. Also my landline number includes vm in the basic service but I don't publish its number very broadly.

Re: Freetalk Connect Me Adapter for Skype

Dear priyalcomm,
Please note that Caller ID is supported now but on SkypeOut calls, we expect to make a release during the course of the month to support Caller ID for PSTN on incoming and outgoing calls.
To setup caller ID number a user will have to go to either Skype desktop client or Skype my account page on Skype.com to configure caller ID to be used on outgoing SkypeOut calls.
The software release will be announced via email and it should be done in shortly. Your FREETALK® Connect•Me will update automatically since it supports automatic software upgrades, there will be no need for hardware exchange.
Kind Regards,
eBuyNow Support

Re: Freetalk Connect Me Adapter for Skype

I can't even get my box to upgrade the firmware.  I'm stuck on version 1.0.5.5.

 

Any offers of help as I don't get an answer from customer support?
