Configuring an ISDN connection on a remote
Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDN) are digital phone services that can
transmit digital and voice data at much faster speeds than traditional modems.
The configuration for an ISDN device is similar to that of a modem.
Symantec pcAnywhere supports ISDN only in North America and Europe. If an
ISDN device is installed and configured properly on your computer, pcAnywhere
automatically detects it and adds it to the connection device list. Choose this
device only if you are using ISDN in North America. If you are using ISDN in
Europe, you must select ISDN via CAPI 2.0.
