I apologize for you not getting a timely response. I cannot, however
reply to your email.
The answer is yes you can use the gateway to receive an incoming modem
call and translate that into TCP/IP transport across your network to
another pc waiting as a host via IP. You will only be able to have
one connection to the gateway at a time as pcANYWHERE only supports
one instance of the gateway running per machine. For more information
on the gateway functionality and how to set it up, please read the

Be well.
