Variable Call Forwarding allows you to activate the call forwarding feature from almost anywhere using a touchtone phone. These steps are as follows: 

1. Call 608-427-6565
2. Enter the phone number you want forwarded

4. Enter *72

Special Notes About Call Forwarding:

• If someone answers the telephone at the telephone number that you forwarded your calls to, you do not need to call the number again.
• Calls forwarded to long distance numbers outside of the Lynxx Networks long distance calling areas will be billed to you at Lynxx Networks long distance rate.
• Deactivate the call forwarding by selecting *73. You will hear two tones, and that confirms your call forwarding is deactivated.
