About Modem-on-
Hold
This feature allows you to answer an incoming call even when you are surfing the Internet.
It suspends the data connection between your modem and the ISP so that you can pick up your
phone and receive an incoming call in the usual way, while surfing the Internet. When your call
is complete, the modem reconnects you to the Internet.
