All phones have to be in the same group (0-64 I think). Regards, Ove

Another solution is to use the Pickup() command. It will pick up a call on a specific extension that is in the "ringing" state: [Description] Pickup(extension[@context]): This application can pickup any ringing channel that is calling the specified extension. If no context is specified, the current context will be used. For example, my co-workers extension is 203. I hear his phone ringing, and I dial my pre-defined pickup extension (**203) to pickup his call. Dialplan example: Exten => **203,1,Pickup(203) Exten => **203,2,Hangup() Note: the read I use ** is GXP-2000 phones will dial **exten while the BLF light is in ringing state. You can use whatever you want.
