Using Toll Bypass, you can route calls to use the Skype network to make low cost international calls with Skype, or local calls from the telephone line connected to the USB Telephone adapter. Toll bypass is similar to call forwarding, except the incoming caller hears a beep, enters a password and then dials out an arbitrary number instead of fixed call forwarding.

You must have the telephone adapter configured for Toll Bypass before using this feature.

Note: If your computer goes into Standby or Hibernation mode, toll bypass will not work. Verify that Disable standby/hibernate is selected in your Toll Bypass configuration.
