Greetings ! I have a Dynex 56K fax/modem model # DX-M300. Because I bought it from e-bay Dynex won't provide technical support.
I have only one telephone line and I am on the internet a lot of the time and miss incoming phone calls. I want to install a program named "Audio Caller ID" but my modem has to be TAPI compliant.
Any one have any ideas if the DX-M300 is TAPI
compliant.

AFAIK a modem must have voice drivers and sound devices to work with Windows TAPI, and what you have is just a Data/Fax modem.

However you are not interested in voice recording but just caller ID, your modem detail clearly states that it supports the modem-on-hold feature which lets you accept incoming phone calls while online.

I have used a caller ID from Bellsouth when I was on dial-up....never missed a call at $4.95 a month for the software. Works with any modem.

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks
