Generally speaking ISDN products come in one of two flavours, those
which directly connect to your computer, ie. ISA/PCI cards for your
PC, and proper routers which connect indirectly via an ethernet.

Since the Falcon doesn't really have either of those you're probably
looking at some kind of h/w add-on for the Falcon if such a beast exists.

You can't just connect normal phone equipment, commonly known as POTS
(Plain Old Telephone System) to an ISDN line, no.  You need some kind
of 'convertor', some T/As and routers have POTS interfaces to allow
you to do this.

Alternatively you can buy a mini telephone exchange to stick on the end
of your ISDN line and get MSN allowing you to do all kinds of things with
your 2 channels.  I believe <URL:http://www.adelheid.demon.co.uk/> is a
good source for more information on this kind of stuff, or you could ask
in demon.service.isdn.
