I don't know if it is universal, but if what you want to do is
eliminate call waiting tones during a data call, New England Telephone
provides a special code:  Dial *70 (yes, star not pound); you will
hear a confirmation of some sort; then dial the number.  That should
prevent call waiting tones for the duration of the call.  (I just
checked with the NET operator.)
