Re: [asterisk-users] VOIP phone for Receptionist use
- Ability for the phone to ring when the receptionist is on one call and a second or third call is incoming. (this has been the biggest frustration up to now. When a second call comes, there is no tone that heard on the IP500. Perhaps I am missing a setting?) The Snom 360 can certainly do this - you can have a muted ringer, or just visual indication, or you can turn it off entirely. - Mike ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
RE: [asterisk-users] VOIP phone for Receptionist use
Join the club, I would like shared line appearance ability along with MANY other people too. That feature is only now on the rader screen for Asterisk but it probably won't be available for some time. Months if not years (probably not till v1.6 which is after the next version which will be 1.4). There are alternatives which some people here may suggest. Unfortunately they require a change in usage and thinking by the receptionist. You would definitely want to be upfront and give some sort of demo beforehand IMHO to avoid problems with the client relationship. My 2 cents.

SV: [asterisk-users] VOIP phone for Receptionist use
For the VoIP phone question, I can warmly recommend the Snom 360. When using hints in asterisk, this is the perfect phone for secretary use, as you can also add a side panel with 48 extra buttons with lights. When using hints you can see when extensions a talking, ringing, as well as have up to 12 ingoing lines. A very good phone, that we recommend to all of our large customers, with a secretary.

Re: [asterisk-users] VOIP phone for Receptionist use
By default, CW is turned off in AAH. You need to turn it on. I use the 301, 500, 501, 600, and 601. CW works w/ AAH and Trixbox. You should visit http://www.trixbox.org/index.php if you are using AAH or Trixbox.
