The terminology between VOIP and POTS is different and unclear. If I go in to an office supply store and buy a 2 line phone, it plugs in to two wall jacks and I can get call waiting, 3-way calling, and on-hold capability on each line. The SPA-841 is more accurately called a 2 call appearance phone. 2 call appearances can be configured as 1 line (with full features) or 2 (lines without the extra features). From reading the ads of other phone providers some use the term "call appearance" and some use the term "line", which I guess means there is no standard yet. For an additional $30 you can upgrade your SPA-841 to be a 4 call appearance phone and get the functionality you want, but I doubt they're going to do it for free in a software upgrade. I'd rather see them clearly state it supports 2 call appearanances in their literature since that's an important detail. They don't seem to say that on their website or in their data sheet. - |Daryll _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
