If you have a modem/router you don't even need a computer. It's a stand-alone device, a network device in itself. If you don't have a modem/router, then you'd need to use a computer to share the internet connection between itself and the ATA, much the same way as you share the internet between more than one PC. > Sounds like a piece of cake.

You use your computer for VOIP, with whatever sound devices are plugged into it (mic, speakers, headphones, etc.). -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
