asterisk users - Sep 2004 - asterisk install in a home with regular phones and a x100p

Hello all,
     I have a question.  I have an asterisk box setup with an x100p card
installed.  I have about 3 VoIP phones connected to it.  The x100p is connected
to my pots line.  I also have regular phones connected the the pots line as
well like most normal people would.  When I get an incomming call all the
regular phones ring and my VoIP phones ring.  This is good.  My question is
this.  Say a call comes in on the pots line and a someone answers it on a
regular phone and the call was for me and I am by a VoIP phone.  Is there
anyway to get asterisk to pickup the X100P card and route the call to the VoIP
phone i am on just like as if you pick up another regular phone in the house.
Setting up an extention to do this would be nice.  I looked at the call
grouping stuff but that only seems to be for if the phone is currently
ringing.

Thanks for any help

Get a one port FXS and connect all of the analog phones to that.

Hello all,
     I have a question.  I have an asterisk box setup with an x100p card
installed.  I have about 3 VoIP phones connected to it.  The x100p is
connected
to my pots line.  I also have regular phones connected the the pots line as
well like most normal people would.  When I get an incomming call all the
regular phones ring and my VoIP phones ring.  This is good.  My question is
this.  Say a call comes in on the pots line and a someone answers it on a
regular phone and the call was for me and I am by a VoIP phone.  Is there
anyway to get asterisk to pickup the X100P card and route the call to the
VoIP
phone i am on just like as if you pick up another regular phone in the
house.
Setting up an extention to do this would be nice.  I looked at the call

If that someone who answered the phone has access to your asterisk box, maybe 
they could press a shortcut or something that would run a script that would 
pick up the phone and dial your number and transfer them to the same channel.

I use the following extension in my dial plan to pickup the ZAP
channel but not dial anything.
This works very well and allows me to pickup a call from a VOIP phone
after the call has already been answered by someone else in the house
on the POTS line.

exten => 1111,1,Dial,ZAP/1           ; Pickup analog line but don't
dial anything
