==Line sharing== Since the waiting call uses a [[zip tone]] (for example, a [[Media:Zip tone.ogg|440 Hz]] beep every ten seconds in North America), call waiting can cause [[dial-up Internet access]] connections to terminate, unless the [[modem]] supports the most recent [[V.92]] modem standard. For this reason, call waiting is often disabled on shared [[Human voice|voice]] lines used for dial-up modem or fax purposes. However, Call Waiting has no impact on [[DSL]] connections.
