[Asterisk-Users] Linksys SPA-941 multiple line appearences

[Kerry Garrison]

Accounts 3-4 are disabled, Account 1 is the only account. Thats it. Nothing
special. If you have problems, try doing *70.

This may sound odd, but I have the opposite problem.  I am trying to disable
call waiting by only allowing 1 call to come into the SPA-941, but I am
getting 2 calls per line key.  If have 1 extension set up on all 4 line
keys, the phone handles 8 incoming calls.  I have a few customers that like
that feature, but others that want to just have 1 call - any tips on what
you did to only get 1 call to ring through without doing any status checking
in the asterisk dialplan would be appreciated.

I set up only 1 extension and set all 4 line appearences to point to that
extension.  I could place up to 4 outgoing calls as extension 1 no problem.
The problem happened when there was an active call on line appearence 1 and 
someone called extension 1.  Instead of ringing on line appearence 2
(extension 1) it would busy out.  My question, is there something in
Asterisk that needs to be adjusted to make the phone work properly or is
there a setting on the phone that needs to be adjusted?  Thank you.

You only need to setup ONE account and all four call appearances will work.
