Call waiting - how to hang up?
AndyJ:
I can't seem to figure out how to actually hang up on a call when more than one call is active. For instance:
(1) I make an outbound call using SP1 (configured for Google Voice)
(2) An incoming call arrives at the LINE port. I get the call waiting tone and flash to switch to that call.
(3) I flash to switch between the two calls a few times (works fine)
(4) I want to end the outbound call on SP1 while continuing the call on the LINE port - is there a way to do this?
If I hang up the phone, it looks like the OBi attempts a call transfer (call history shows "Call Transferred") - connecting LINE and SP1. But, that doesn't seem to actually work... the caller on the LINE port just hears dead silence, but the call remains active (according to the "Call Status" page) until the caller on LINE hangs up. [And, really, in this case, I DON'T want the call to be transferred.]
RonR:
I get the exact same results from the scenario you described.
1. I would expect a transfer only if I had placed an outgoing call as the second call with the first one on hold.
2. 1 would expect a ring for the holding call after hanging up on the either call in a call waiting situation.
AndyJ:
Exactly... based on how PSTN call waiting works, after hanging up on SP1, I was expecting the phone to ring and then be reconnected to LINE after picking up. I was pretty surprised to see "Call Transferred" in the history, with no way to reconnect with LINE. It looks like this is something else that needs to be fixed.

Your expectation is correct.
We have a bug. A fix is on the way.
We plan to post a new release this week which will include this fix.
Thanks for reporting this issue.

Thanks! It works fine after the firmware upgrade :)
