I am trying to *make* my modem disconnect when a call waiting beep comes in.
I know most people have just the opposite problem, but I want my modem to
disconnect when another call comes in so I don't miss any calls.  I am using
a generic 56k modem that came with my computer, its a ViVa Commcenter 56.
Suprisingly the modem manages to keep the connection when another call comes
in 90% of the time.  I've tried changing the init string (turning off flow
control, turning of error correction, etc.) to weaken the connection, but
nothing seems to work.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks...
