Voice Tools Spontaneous Ring

The Voice Tools Cheatsheet shows Spontaneous Ring as available from the Voice Tools page. But going to Voice Tools >Settings does not show this feature. How do you set up or change the Spontaneous Ring option? (and also, it's another example of the poor design of Cox Web Pages.)

    It looks like you have to...

    - Enable Nomorobo/Simultaneous Ring
    - [Options will expand]
    - Enable Simultaneous Ring
    - [Options will expand]
    - Enter wife's phone number

    Simultaneous Ring

    I’ll assume you have a Cox-provided telephone modem (eMTA).  If so, which model is it?

      Yes, I have a Cox provided phone modem.  But the model shouldn't change how the Cox Web pages read.  I currently have Simultaneous Ring activated and love it..  What I wanted to do, was change the number of the phone that's ringing Simultaneously. My cell phone is currently down, and I wanted to change it to ring my wife's phone.

    I just confirmed your navigation.  It's Voice Tools > Settings > Settings (again).  Mine had Call Waiting enabled.  I wonder how long this has been on without my approval?  Is there a cost for Call Waiting?
