The telephone subscriber being called need not be an Inet customer or connection. The telephone being called should be connected to a V.22 or V.22 bis DOT interface approved PSTN dialup modem which is in auto-answering or manual answering mode.

• Customers can also originate calls from all over the country on Local call using "171000" facility of Inet to telephone subscribers at any of the above mentioned modems connected to it.
