Hi,

I don't know about the foreign id format of your modem. However, I do know that if you have dial-up and want the service to work, you not only have to have Caller ID, Call waiting, and get this one.....and it is free from my phone company, but you have to request that it be put in service.....You must also have Call Waiting, caller ID for it to work properly. If you don't have that, it won't be able to identify who is calling. Therefore, you must request all three from your phone provider.
