Obviously, Caller ID works on the 622 phone/RJ45 connection (VoIP or traditional phone). I know about all that. But has anyone heard if you can use the Ethernet for VoIP Caller ID or heard any rumors of this being an option in the future? You would have to get your phone service over the Internet (i.e VoIP) for this to be possible.
I realize the modem from the cable company has two outputs, RJ45 for VoIP/phone and Ethernet for broadband/Internet. The RJ45 connection only carries the phone signal, so your household phones/wiring/jacks can be used. However, I'm certain the data stream coming out the Ethernet side of the modem contains both the Internet as well as the VoIP information (i.e. you can install software, such as Sphericall, on a PC to make calls, for caller ID, etc).
I guess the 622 would need software to be able to read VoIP caller ID info directly from the data stream via Ethernet. Is it built in the DISH software already? I would think the Caller ID information on VoIP signals must be standardized, or else 911 call centers would have to install proprietary Caller ID software for every VoIP provider in the country.
