I'm trying to switch from one call to another incoming call from PSTN.
When I'm getting a "beep" I press flash but instead of swithing to the
second call, I'm getting a dial tone. even if I press *0, I cannot connect
to the second call.
Anybody had this problem?
This is one of the catches I ran across while working on a new deployment of * in my home. The workaround I've been using is to hang up on the first call, at which point whatever was beeping on call waiting will ring the line. The drawback is that you have to hang up on the current call to get the call waiting call.
On the 2.x Sipura firmware there's an option for the device to send the hook flash event as a SIP message, but * doesn't know what to do with it. Support for this could be added by, for example, triggering a hook flash on the zap channel currently in use by the phone that sent the message. I haven't tried this on other phones, or looked in to this in any depth. I'm also pretty new to *, so I don't know how hard it would be for me to make a patch that would handle this.
That said, I could be totally wrong and there is a way to get the hook flash to translate from the phone to a zap channel, but as far as I can tell, there isn't.
