Getting A Phone Call While Online

[Mykonos]

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone here know of a good little program that tells my modem to disconnect from the internet immediately when a call comes in. Either that or inform me a call is coming in. Preferably a program that will work as soon as I install it. I wish not to have to call the phone company or anything and set up call forward on a busy or whatever. Anyone have any suggestions? thanks

I'm afraid i don't know of any software but then i stopped using Dial-up many years ago...

You need a modem with built-in "call waiting" feature, then you enable call waiting.

Software is available but you will still have to tell your phone company to turn on 'call waiting' for it to work.
