Multiple phone ports and Call waiting.

Just checked my settings and Call waiting is enabled for Ph1 and Ph2. Can anyone else confirm the default behavior? In my case on a second incoming call I hear no tone on ph1, but ph2 rings when a call is ongoing on ph1.
Your description sounds confusing. But I think it has been asked and answered here already

I went out and bought an Obi202 after reading that thread and it works for me.
I have 2 line V-Tech Phone and currently when a call comes in only Ph1 rings. If another call comes in while I'm on Ph1, then I get a CW on Ph1 but Ph2 now rings.
Also I can be on a call on Ph1 and still dial another call using Ph2 which is nice.

Let me try to clarify. In the post you have linked, the user wanted the second line to ring ONLY if the first line is busy.
I am not worried about when the second line rings. I want a call waiting tone to be generated on ph1 when a second call comes in. Right now only the second phone rings and no call-waiting beep is heard on ph1. It is not ideal as the second phone is a corded handset in a remote location. I gather that both you and the original poster in the other thread have used dual-line phones. Maybe it generates the call-waiting beep when it senses an incoming call on line 2 when line 1 is busy. In my setup, I have two distinct phones hooked up to ph1 and ph2 on Obi.
azrobert:
For a test send inbound calls to only PH1 by changing SP1 X_InboundCallRoute to: ph
Do you now get the Call Waiting tone?

I tried to reroute inbound to ph alone and Call waiting worked as expected. More importantly, I restored inbound call route to ph,ph2 and call-waiting works as desired (tone and interrupt is generated on ph and ph2 rings as well)
Thanks
