A device for implementing a method of remotely routing a voice call
forward to a telematic device is disclosed. The device first maintains a
call state of the voice call in response to an answering of call
forwarding rings by the telematic device. The device then forwards the
calls to the next assigned device in response to a failure of a user of
the telematic device to answer fake rings from the telematic device. Such
a failure can be indicated by a monitoring of a prescribed number of back
ring tones or a dropping of call within a prescribed timer window.
