Bumped off the Net - again!
Tip Here's a tip that might solve a lot of frustration for other Net users. I kept being disconnected from the Net for unknown reasons. Stranger still, when being disconnected suddenly, my other phone would ring . . . A quick call to Telstra revealed that if you have call waiting enabled and have two phones connected, the signal generated will ring the other (non-Net-connected) phone over the top of your connection, and -- voil! -- instant disconnection. The solution: disable the call waiting feature (dial #43#). - Reinier Bouman | Category: Internet Issue: Nov 1997 Pages: 169 |
