NetWaiting™
NetWaiting (a BVRP application) is bundled with the Conexant V.92 modem chipset and driver. In NetWaiting's initial release, Call Waiting is supported for the US, Japan, China, Israel, France, Italy and Singapore. Call Waiting CID is supported for US, Japan, Israel, France and Italy. More countries will be added over time.
NetWaiting, like all MOH applications, requires the user to have Call Waiting service with their telephone company. Additionally, Call Waiting must be enabled. Some ISPs (e.g. AOL) automatically turn off Call Waiting in their dial up scripts.

For customer convenience, Conexant bundles a Modem-on-Hold™ application called NetWaiting. The NetWaiting applet supports the following features:

• Intercept MOH events triggered by the modem drivers, through the API supplied by the modem manufacturer
• If calls are screened, prompt user for a decision when an incoming call shows up, (with display of the Caller-ID or friendly name, if present): Accept call and put modem on hold, or reject call and continue Internet session. If the session is not a V.92 session, then accepting the call will automatically terminate the Internet session
• Display of the remaining time before making a decision on the incoming call (V.92 only)
• Display the on-hold remaining time allotted by the ISP and let the user either disconnect the Internet connection or hang up the call and resume the Internet session
• Allow the user to place outgoing calls by putting the modem on hold if an Internet connection is engaged
• Allow the user to configure the behavior of the applet through a “Preferences” menu:
  • Enable/disable MOH (immediate action)
  • Specify per call options: Ignore all incoming calls, Accept all incoming calls and disconnect Internet connection, Screen all incoming calls and prompt the user (active at the next Internet session)
  • Ability to edit a friendly name table to display Caller-Ids in a meaningful way for the user (immediate action)
