You could try setting your modem's S10 register to a higher number.  The S10
register controls the time the modem will wait out a :lost carrier: and that is
what the call waiting signal does - "loses the carrier" for a short period
(does anyone know how long call waiting lasts?).  Try a setting of about 125 ms
and if that works, include the S10=125 in your modem's init string.  On my
EMAC, setting S10 to 255 disables the modems ability to hang-up, no matter what
you do.  you have to type in the ATS10=70 from the command line to get out of
that - so don't go to 255!

Luck.
