Or, possibly see if one could find an old dial in router that had

you would phone it, it would then phone back on a preprogrammed number.


The only problem with that is that it would respond to *all* incoming
calls and potentially make outgoing calls at times when they are
chargeable. Also, it would have to answer before the answering machine
cut in, so no-one would be able to leave a message.

Ideally, I would like something which I could initiate by talking to the
router over the internet.
