Well, your description of the scenario doesn't make much sense, but to answer the question if its a sip channel (softphone or hardphone), then simply press the hold button and hang up the handset. If the phone is on a zap channel (fxs port) then press flash on the phone and put the handset on the desk. Do not put handset back on hook, or else it will just ring back to you.
The # is for transfering calls, not hold. Thank you, Steve Maroney On Fri, 3 Sep 2004, Marconi Rivello wrote: > Hi, > > How do I put a call on hold?
