Cam knows when Jane goes because the Janepoint says so.
It's still very smart - smarter than Cam's laptop, smarter than the average shrub - if wizards talking to a thing makes it brighter like a reading light, having Jane inhabit it is the equivalent of ignited magnesium. It can probably do anything Jane could do, if Cam tells it. Probably could even eat the Internet that Jane was politely keeping her chompers away from.
But it's not her anymore.

[What's up?] says Jellybean, speaking for both of them.

[Jane's cut off. The terminal's still here - hell, it even still sounds like her - but no more universe-hopping or talking to the Peal unless we find Milliways again the pedestrian route.]
[Well, fuck,] says Jellybean. [Okay.]

[Yeah. We couldn't raise local dead anyway, so, we're not in as bad shape as some, but we're cut off and I don't know what could've happened to Jane.]
[Maybe she took a nap,] he says whimsically.

[Without warning?]
[I don't actually think that's what happened, but I have no idea what did.]

[Yeah, the Janepoint doesn't know either, it just knows one minute there were two ends to the ansible and now there aren't.]
[Well, fuck,] sighs Jellybean.

[If either of you finds a door to Milliways you'll tell me, right?]
[Of course,] says Jellybean.
