<p>Not in any way a good solution, but what I've done is create an extension that flashs the line, and then returns the call to my sip phone. For example:</p>
<p><font size="2">[app-flash]
<br />exten => _*4.,1,macro(test,${EXTEN:2},${CALLERIDNUM})</font></p>
<p><font size="2">[macro-test]
<br />exten => s,1,Answer
<br />exten => s,3,Flash
<br />exten => s,3,Dial(SIP/${ARG2},30,t)
<br />exten => s,4,Dial(SIP/${ARG1},30,t)
<br />exten => s,t,Hangup
<br />exten => s,i,Hangup
<br />exten => s,h,Hangup</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Then if you're on a call through the Zap line, and transfer the call to *4xxxx, it will flash the line and return it to xxxx SIP extension. I've been trying to get it to auto-detect the SIP extension to return it to, but callerid is different depending on if the call is incoming or outgoing through the Zap. </font></p>
<p><font size="2">Again, not good.. but works in a home environment. I think we'll need in-call triggers to do anything better.</font></p>

<br />Subject: [Asterisk-Users] call waiting, * and FXO
<br />
<br />> <font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I have been told that the combination of call waiting, * and FXO does and will not work because “Asterisk is a PBX”. I guess I’d like to hear if this is a hard and fast “no this will not work and here’s why”, or that this currently doesn’t work but with some coding might work.

<br />> <font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I’d like to have the option to be able to continue using call waiting with an FXO line (and I know I’m not alone). I know if I switched to a SIP based connection instead of the FXO this would work, but I currently like my unlimited plan with Vonage.
