[Asterisk-Users] using * for Internet call waiting

[Gary Carr]

That's pretty close to what we are looking for but we want the user to have 
the option of taking the call which would disconnect the modem connection 
and allow the call to ring thru to the phone. Not sure how to accomplish 
that. I am sure our programmer could code a client but he has no experience 
with *. If we can figure out that part we could come up with something.
