    Odd Habits

    More on muttering. I think I saw the second coolest guy in the world, Mel Gibson, muttering to himself in either Braveheart or the Patriot. Muttering must be good. I'm gonna go mutter now. Richard The unexamined life is not worth living; Socrates

    Fractional T1?

    We have an office with a Merlin Legend/Magix r7.0, with a single T1 (PRI) for all calls. Any reason why I can't use half of a T1 for data (frame relay) and the other half for voice? The DS1 card is a DS1 100 517E15 Richard The unexamined life is not worth living; Socrates

    Speaker Phones

    I didn't/wouldn't even consider using a SP with a customer. That is wrong on many levels. Richard The unexamined life is not worth living; Socrates

    Button to show an ext name?

    What button can be programmed on my phone to show a users name if I dial their extension? IE Push the mystery button dial extension see name on display. I figure calling and hanging up on users is a bad idea. Richard The unexamined life is not worth living; Socrates

    Conference call on 7406+ ?

    Yes, I beleive you can do a six party call. I had never even seen a 7406+ phone before arriving at this company. At first I really hated it. But now I've grown accustomed to them, and accepting a few limitations, can live with them . I get them refurbed for $50 so it's a pretty good value...

    Can the Message Waiting Light be made to Flash?

    This whole, or should that be hole?, scenario grows from the user wanting the MWL to stand out so as to remind them to check vm. This makes me think the solid light is on so much that the effect of it has worn off. The user has grown de-sensitized by the practice of ignoring it. It's their own...

    Speaker Phones

    As a "phone person" I have a love hate affair with the speakerphone. First the only really good speakerphone I've ever heard is a Polycom. The speakers in most phones are fair, it's the microphones that suck. I think we all agree that use of a SP in an open area is a bad idea. It, by company...

    Odd Habits

    Since the coolest man on the planet, Sean Connery, mutters to himself as Cptn Ramius in The Hunt for Red October, it's obviously ok and in fact a habit to be encouraged. *In a desparate attempt at coolness Richard finds himself muttering as he types this* I answer the phone in the bathroom...

    Avaya's support model

    Be careful what you ask for, cause you might get it. You may be accustomed to PCs and servers where you can dig into the OS. This does not happen with most, if not all, PBXs. As a result, PBXs have MUCH higher up time. You probably have as much access into your switch as you need. While I at...

    Sony notebook power problem

    I have a three year old Sony VAIO PCG-FX240 notebook. Over the past few months I had noticed the battery would not keep the machine up for more than a few minutes so I knew it was going bad. A couple of weeks ago it got to where it would die even though I had it plugged in to the electrical...

    Way to stop inbound calls via AA?

    orypecos, The phones I'm trying to keep from getting inbound calls have a COR that restricts public calls. ie, Called Party Restriction: public Thus, an attempt to make a call direct to an extension is redirected to the live attendant. Calls to the auto-attendant can transfer to the...
