Folks: I'd like to install Asterisk for use in my home. However, I'd like to continue using wireless phones in a couple of locations. The cheapest way to do this is to continue to use analog phone devices via an FXO/FXS box. However, I am not clear on whether I can expect these devices to provide "call waiting" features and caller ID features to the connected analog phone. Ideally I would use one of the cheaper devices such as that available from www.pcphoneline.com Any clues? A.

[Asterisk-Users] Caller ID "forwarded" to analog phone?
US/Canada caller id can be forwarded between FXO to FXS devices. On call waiting, I believe you need this: When I'm on my FXS and need to flash the FXO device, I do flash then *0 on my phone. Works like a charm for me, I use an asterisk behind another PBX, so when I need to transfer a call coming from the other PBX to another extension on the same PBX, I do flash, *0 then dial the extension number on the other PBX I need to transfer to.
