[Asterisk-Users] Help with Call Waiting!

[Martin Keding]

Thanks for the clarification. I did find a few more nuggets in wiki and a
goggle search but I still can't get it to work. What I tried now was a
suggestion posted a while ago. Basically when a second call comes in, hit
transfer and enter extension 888. This then sends a flash hook on the
outside line, and then returns to the original extension. The post said it
worked but it didn't on my system. Also, this seems a poor way of achieving
this. There was also a few posts about an option that sent an external flash
for 3 way calling but there were no examples or how too's. Have you got this
to work?
 
exten => s,1,Dial(SIP/testphone,20,tr)
exten => s,2,Voicemail,u102
exten => s,102,Voicemail,b102
......
 
exten => 888,1,flash()
exten => 888,2,Dial(SIP/testphone)
 
Thanks
Martin

Your flash button sends a flash to the * box not to the PSTN.  Check out the
Flash() command on the Wiki adn you shoudl be able to create an extension to
send the flash down the line.  Also seach google using the
site:lists.digium.com and you will see more on flash and call waiting.

Help! I am having a problem getting wall waiting to work. 
 
I have a X100p and a TDM400 card with and analog phone attached (as well as
a number of SIP phones) running on RedHat 9.0 box. The PSTN line has the
call waiting feature. If I am on the phone, I get a beep indicating a second
call is waiting. However, there is no way, no how, that I can get it to
switch to the second line! Flash button, etc doesn't do it. Any words of
wisdom would be greatly appreciated. (I have callwaiting turned on in
zapata.conf)
