Always getting Incoming call message when connected to the Internet


Recommended Posts

I always get an "Incoming Call" message which then disconnect my dial-up connection.

My phone line doesn't have a waiting call feature, so anybody calling during my online session should get a busy signal.

How do I disable this?

I'm using Windows XP home on DELL Inspiron 2650 notebook.

The modem is PCTEL 2304WT V.92 MDC (internal modem)

Is there any registry setting or INIT setting that I have to set?

And my ISP doesnot support V.92 yet.

Thanks

here to disable call waiting i have to dail *70+phone number.

yes you say you don't have call waiting, but still, you could try this..:ponder:

i'm not familiar w/ that modem but check it's options, maybe you can disable that "incoming call" thingie.

I don't see how it would do that if you don't have call waiting? but I guess it's possible.

try disableing call waiting with (*70,000-0000).The comma makes the modem pause it's dialing for 1 sec, fill the zeros with your isp number. If you don't really have call waiting then you will get a busy signal.

*70 is what most telephone companies use. If in doubt call and ask.

    • Meta says that its "Private Processing technology" will be used. Oh, thank God! Now, I will finally sleep a whole lot better at night trusting FB. 🙄🙄🙄
    • The Teams Admin center is still a mess. I use it all the time. They really need to talk with the Intune or Entra ID folks for help.
    • Senua's Saga: Hellblade II to get 60FPS mode, dev commentary, and more alongside PS5 launch by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Back in May, Microsoft revealed Senua's Saga: Hellblade II as the next first-party Xbox game to reach PlayStation platforms. Now, that release has an official release date attached to it, and alongside it, developer Ninja Theory is releasing an update across all platforms with some major features, including a 60 FPS mode on consoles. The Performance Mode is easily the biggest addition to the story-focused immersive experience. Ninja Theory is delivering it to both Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 players, but there is some bad news for Series S owners, as it is being left out from the upgrade. "The result is smoother gameplay, especially noticeable during combat and fast-moving moments of the game," says the developer. It's unclear how much of the game's visuals Performance Mode users will be missing out on compared to the default 30FPS "cinematic" mode. PC players are getting an upgrade too. A Very High preset is being added to the settings menu for those wanting even higher fidelity graphics. Optimizations have also been a focus on PC, and Ninja Theory says that the title will be Steam Deck Verified when the Enhanced update lands in August. Next, similar to the original, Dark Rot is incoming as an optional experience that players can enable when starting a campaign. This will have a rot effect being applied to Senua every time she dies, and if it ever reaches her head, the game will come to an end, with all progress from that save being wiped. The Photo Mode in Hellblade II is being upgraded with this update too, with the studio touting a new Motion tab for cinematic video capture, as well as improvements across the board to the feature. Lastly, four hours of developer commentary is being added to give a behind-the-scenes look at how the studio crafted the story and gameplay. "Hear from the ensemble cast, key collaborators in depicting Senua’s experience of psychosis, and members of the development team who poured their heart and soul into Senua’s story," says the studio. The Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced comes out on August 12 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 for all owners and Game Pass subscribers as a free upgrade. As for the PlayStation 5 launch of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II that's happening on the same day, Microsoft will be offering two versions: Standard and Deluxe. As expected, Standard includes the complete base game for $49.99, but Deluxe goes further by adding on a copy of the first game, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, as well as its original soundtrack. The Deluxe Edition costs $69.99 to purchase.
    • Not sure what you’re talking about. Has been there for quite a while and in the latest versions it’s actually quite good. I use it several times a day as I am a terrible typist.
