| 26098 | 2001-11-30 08:32:00 | Can anyone tell me if one has 'CALL WAITING' on a standard telephone line, is it possible when connected to the net if you can use the call waiting function? That is, alert me that there is a call waiting and if I were to log-off I could pick up the phone hand-set and answer the call? | Guest (0) | ||

If is is enabled, the tones sent corrupt the data and crash the connection, so you don't get the option of logging off, then answeing the phone. If it crashes your session, just answer the phone. | Guest (0) | ||
