Call waiting how do i answer call waiting

If someone reads your question and decides that they may have an idea what the problem is they may answer
if not the wait can take a while some questions have been waiting years

the same button you use to answer it.
Then when you want to join calls , you click it again...

1. Remote operation instructions begin on page 62 of this manual.

2. Call waiting instructions are on page 35.

hi, the call waiting is just there for you to know that someone else is trying to reach you...but its not possible for you to pick two calls at a time...you can only answer one..so, if someone important is trying to reach you while you are on call, the call waiting will let you know..it is now left to you to decide if you want to answer it or not.

Unplug the device, wait for 30 seconds, and plug it back in to see if it resets the device. Make sure you wait the full 30 seconds.

Can you power it on. Does motor turn drum? Answer in comments

THere are two answers to you question, depending on certain options and conditions.

First, where is the voice mail and where is the call waiting coming from?

1. If Voice Mail (VM) is located in the central office and you have a destination for call forward BUSY/NO ANSWER it will go to CO VM.

2. If Voice Mail on premise (Partner Mail), and you have CF BUSY/NO ANSWER set on your phone, it will go to voice mail....IF the call waiting is coming from another line. The CF and ring count is set in Partner system programming.

3. If you have call waiting coming on the same phone line and don't have CO VM, then you have no voice mail.

My CO codes for VM are 72# for Call Forwarding and *92 for CF Busy.

As Always, YMMV

TS stands for "Toll Saver"
It will ring 4 times if there are no new messages waiting, it will ring 2 times if there are new messages waiting.

This has two effects:

1) If you are calling home to check your messages, you can wait 2 rings. If there are new messages to check, then it answers immediately. If you make it to 3 rings, you know there are no new messages and you can hang up before you are billed for your call. This was more useful when you would use a pay phone or hotel phone to make a long distance call home. With a pay phone you would get your "quarter" back as long as there were no messages. With cell phones,it isn't as useful.

2) If you not home (which is implied by the fact that there are new messages waiting), it answers faster, so people calling you don't have to wait as long. This could also be viewed as a security risk... it tells your callers whether you are home or not.

check your phone settings and if u do not want call waiting,disable it manually
