ML>>> I'm pretty new on the modem scene and I was just wondering if anyone

ML>>> in Australia, knows how to setup their modem so that it disconnects

ML>>> the previous call so that you can answer the incoming call.



PL>>> Are you wanting to answer the call by modem or by phone?



ML>>  I want to answer the call by phone.



It's a bit hard to help this guy, without covering ALL bases, what with

the confusing explaination we got in the first place.



I hope he has enough nouse to learn a bit from everything we have told him.



 PL> I think you'll find that if you have your EasyCall Call Waiting turned 

 PL> on, it

 PL> will hang up the modem. Most modems seems to suffer from this. I know I 

 PL> have to

 PL> make sure it isn't on when the BBS is running. To turn it on pick up the

 PL> receiver and type *43# and #43# to turn it off.



 PL> If you have an external Courier modem, just push the voice/data button on 

 PL> the

 PL> front.



My understanding is that that button on the front can be programmed to do any

number of tasks. He had better check a manual before just PUSHING THE BUTTON.
