Abstract

See full text

A subscriber to a two-way paging system can configure a call routing/forwarding 'speed-dial' menu for display on the subscriber's two-way pager. The subscriber can then choose from among the options in this menu each time a call is placed to the subscriber's personal telephone number (PTN). The call forwarding menu is stored in a customer routing point (CRP) database record associated with the subscriber and/or the subscriber's PTN, and is either downloaded upon creation to the subscriber's two-way pager for long-term storage in the two-way pager's memory, or downloaded to the two-way pager each time a call is made to the subscriber's PTN. In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the subscriber can configure multiple call routing menus, and designate for each menu the caller(s) to which the menu corresponds. Thus, when a call is made to the subscriber's PTN, a determination is made as to the identity of the caller, and the appropriate call forwarding menu is then displayed on the subscriber's two-way pager.
