Can I use RingCentral software with a Cable/DSL modem?
Technically, Cable/DSL adapters are not modems – from the PC’s point of view they are network adapters. Thus, RingCentral does not (and cannot) work with them. DSL/Cable adapters connect to PC via Network card which carries high-speed traffic from/to your DSL/Cable box, which connects to the phone line or cable. Low speed traffic (telephone conversations, dialup connections) is carried by the regular modem, which should also be connected to the phone line. Even if you installed DSL or Cable adapter, to use RingCentral you still need to have regular data/fax or voice modem plugged in to the phone line.
