Usually a code is punched into a phone which will turn it off until you hang up the phone. If you are using a security system like SAM or Defender which call you back you are out of luck unless your phone provider allows you to turn off call waiting until you want to turn it back on. IMHO call waiting does not belong on a phone line being used for a modem. Vernon
