Modify your dialing string to disable call waiting, it's usually *70, before the number, it can be automatically set in dialing properties. Otherwise you need a modem with call waiting capability. Before going on line, you need to pick up the phone and make sure you don't get the "stutter" dialtone that means you have new voicemail.
At today's prices, have you considered broadband? |
