3 Way CallingCall two parties at once!
With three way calling you can talk to two other people at once with ease. This feature lets you bring the second party on line by following the
instructions below. Note: calls made outside of your calling plan will be charged at our low long distance rates
How it Works
- Dial the first party. Ask them to hold.
- Press the flash button or the switch hook on your phone. The first call will be put on hold and you will hear a dial tone.
- Dial the second number and wait for an answer.
- Press the flash button or switch hook on your phone.
- All three callers are now connected and you can talk together.
Caller ID
Lets you know who's calling.
Know who is calling you before you answer the phone. When your phone rings, the name and phone number of the person calling you will show in
your Caller ID enabled phone display. It also works with call waiting, and will show the caller's name and phone number as the call waiting
tone sounds.
How it Works
- To use this feature, you must have a caller ID enabled phone.
- Review your phone's configuration guide for information on setting your display name.
Note: We cannot guarantee Caller ID will work on all incoming calls.
Call Forwarding
Incoming calls can ring where you want, when you want.
OmniNET Call Forwarding lets you ring multiple numbers of your choice. You can send incoming calls to any phone number you choose, even International numbers.
Sequential Ringing
With Sequential Ringing, your incoming calls will ring each number you specify in the exact order you choose for the length of time you
select. If a number you chose is in use or does not answer, the next number in your list will immediately ring. Sequential ringing can ring
both in network and out of network numbers including long distance and international numbers.
Why do you want this? Let's say you don't want callers to go to voicemail even when you can't get the phone. You can add all of your
numbers including other business associates, your home, office, cell and even your friends or someone else who takes calls for you. With
sequential ringing you'll never miss an important call.
Simultaneous Ringing
This incredible feature rings all the numbers you chose at one time. The call will connect to the first phone answered.
Why do you want this? This feature is perfect for companies who have multiple people available to take calls or for individuals on the move.
Users that are not always near one specific phone can make sure callers reach you in the fewest number of rings. Whether you're at home, in the
car, out to lunch, traveling or at work, you can answer a call fast.
How it Works
Advanced Call Forwarding is included with every InPhonex account at no additional cost. When ringing a "non OmniNET" number such as your cell
phone or international number, a per minute fee will apply.
Easy to Setup and Easy to Use
Setting up OmniNET Call Forwarding is easy.
- Login to the web based Control Panel.
- Click the Call Forwarding tab.
- Enter the numbers you want to ring.
- Choose Sequential or Simultaneous and the number of seconds you want the system to ring.
Call Waiting
Never miss a call while on the phone.
If you are on the phone when another call comes in, a tone will sound, enabling you to answer the second call. If you choose not to answer the
second call, it will be forwarded (if forwarding is enabled) otherwise it will be answered by voicemail (if enabled). If you use Caller ID,
the caller's phone number will appear in the display before you answer the second call. Call waiting is enabled by default.
How it Works
- When you hear the call waiting tone, press the flash button on your phone to switch to the second call.
