The tone ",T1.0% !beep,S1.0%!8" that alerts you that a call is waiting to be answered ,S1.0%%%!Fhas been known to have some rather strange affects if your computer ,T1.0%% %!Fhappens to be online. ,T1.0%% %!FThe obvious answer is to disable the callwaiting feature while the ,T1.0%% %!Fcomputer's online. In some areas this can be done at no cost to the ,T1.0%% %!Fuser. In others, there is a fee for being able to disable this ,T1.0%%%!Ffeature. In any case, use TELIX's Dial Prefix #1. ,T1.0%%%!FThe Dial Prefix string that seems to work is: ,T1.0% %%!F ATDT ,T1.0%%%!9Press "0" to return to Menu, any other key to continue...,T1.0%%,81.0,=1*E 0, 1.0%%%²%%O%%,1.0%p%%!
