Is there a way to mute/silence the ringer on an incoming call? If we are busy we do not answer the phone but it comtinues to ring, is there a button we can push to silence the ringer but not actually hang up on the person?

Also, how do I change the amount of rings? For external calls the phone only rings twice, we would like it to ring 4.

Thank you
 
These are really questions you should ask your service provider.

But to answer your first question, its all in the manual for the phone. And its not really a question that can be answered since you don´t mention what model the phone is.

For question two you adjust the no answer timer in Manager.
 
it is an M7310, it is NOT in the manual, but thank you for your time.
 
Wouldnt this be better off in the Nortel forum - looks like you have posted there before.

Replace with a 9508, use the IGNORE soft key, and set the no answer time to 20 sec.
 
Why are you ignoring incoming calls? do you not care about your customers.

Assuming you are too busy to answer calls & there is someone else available then either take you phone out of group (Hunt group enable/disable) or go on Do Not Disturb.

Really, give me a phone so that i can ignore it when i want too :)
If you do not want to answer it then:
1 remove the phone
2 send the call to voicemail
3 let somebody else answer it


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

 
either turn the ringer down while it is ringing in or activate the do not disturb feature
