NetWaiting™

NetWaiting is bundled with the Conexant V.92 modem chipset and driver.

NetWaiting, like all V.92 applications, requires the user to have Call Waiting service with their telephone company.

Additionally, Call Waiting must be enabled.

The NetWaiting applet supports the following features:

1. If calls are screened, a prompt for a user decision when an incoming call shows up, (with display of the Caller-ID or friendly name, if present): Accept call and put modem on hold, or reject call and continue Internet session.
2. If the session is not a V.92 session, then accepting the call will automatically terminate the Internet session
3. Display of the remaining time before making a decision on the incoming call (V.92 only)
4. Display the on-hold remaining time allotted by the ISP and let the user either disconnect the Internet connection or hang up the call and resume the Internet session
5. Allow the user to place outgoing calls by putting the modem on hold if an Internet connection is engaged
6. Allow the user to configure the behavior of the applet through a “Preferences” menu:
7. Enable/disable MOH (immediate action)
8. Specify per call options: Ignore all incoming calls, Accept all incoming calls and disconnect Internet connection, Screen all incoming calls and prompt the user (active at the next Internet session)
9. Ability to edit a friendly name table to display Caller-Ids in a meaningful way for the user (immediate action)
