Do You Have Call-Waiting?
If you have call-waiting on the phone line that your CapTel is connected to, incoming calls may disrupt the connection with the captioning service unless you block call-waiting. During a captioned call with 1-Line CapTel, you should block your call-waiting service to prevent interruption of captions. Programming the call-waiting block will not affect non-captioned calls. If you program a call waiting block but do not have call waiting, your captioned calls will not dial out correctly.
