Maybe I'm reading this wrong but why on earth would you want to attempt
a modem connection using VoIP when the VoIP is already going to be on a
broadband connection anyway?
Anyway, the answer is you might be able to get a *very* slow modem
connection working (14.4kbps at the most using normal g711 codecs) but
even then it's likely to be unreliable. You'd also need to buy an ATA
to connect the modem to if you don't already have one, although perhaps
you already have a router with an ATA built-in since you've got VoIP
with your Internet connection already.
