The USB Telephone Adapter lets you enable call forwarding for incoming Skype calls to another destination so you can be accessible via your Skype Name while away from your computer. You can also forward incoming PSTN calls.
Note: If your computer goes into Standby or Hibernation mode, call forwarding will not work. Verify that Disable standby/hibernate is selected in your Call Forwarding configuration.
Skype to Phone Line Call Forwarding
With your USB Telephone Adapter, you can forward incoming Skype calls to a PSTN telephone number, such as your mobile telephone.
Right click on the USB Telephone Adapter in the system tray and select Configure.
In the Configuration window, select the Call forwarding tab.
Under VoIP to phone line, select Call forward.
The Disable standby/hibernate option is automatically selected. If your computer goes in to sleep or hibernation mode,it will disable the ability of the USB Telephone Adapter to perform call forwarding.
Using the drop-down box, select the number of times that the telephone will ring before forwarding.
This allows you to permanently leave call forwarding on, but allows time to answer incoming Skype calls when at your computer.
Note: If you enable both Call Forwarding and Toll Bypass, they will use the same number of rings before picking up. Then calls will be forwarded if Toll Bypass is not excercised within 5 seconds. Click for more information on using Toll Bypass.

Click Apply to save your changes.
Until you disable call forwarding, all incoming calls to your Skype account will be forwarded to the number if they are not answered before the specified number of rings.
