Since the beginning (of my Asterisk life) I have an install that is, supposedly, set up for call waiting. Using a TDM400p, with FXO and FXS modules. On the Analog phones, I can hear the Incoming call (call waiting) tone, but the system does not respond to a "hook flash", to place the current call on hold and answer the incoming call. I have not attempted, nor research how/if this can be done on SIP. What am I not grasping here? About the Analog phone/Asterisk actions. Not too vague, I hope. joe a.
Are you doing *0 after you flash the hook? This will flash the fxo
line for you. I do wish there was a way to get Asterisk to answer the
call waiting on the fxo, all I ever get is the call waiting beep and I
get to answer it myself, otherwise it goes to telco's voicemail.

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is:
How do
you spend it?

That takes me to the "waiting" call. But how to switch back, is still a mystery. Do to various constraints intense testing is not possible at this time. Anyone? joe a.
