Sonar Phone for Call Queues helps Call Center Agents manage incoming calls directly from their browser—no desk phone required. This article explains why you must add your unique webphone extension to call queues, offers quick references to Sonar Phone UI, and provides first steps for troubleshooting.Â
Why Sonar Phone Must be Added to Call Queues
To receive queue calls on Sonar Phone, Office Managers/Call Center Supervisors must add both an agent's primary extension and their webphone extension to assigned call queues.Â
The webphone extension is identified by the letters “wp” following the primary extension's numerical value.
Example:
- If Sam’s primary extension is 101, their webphone extension is 101wp.
- Both 101 and 101wp must be added to the call queue. Enabling both devices allows Sam (the agent) to choose which device (desk phone, webphone, mobile app) receives queue calls.

You must contact net2phone Canada to enable call recording for your Sonar Phone. If you need call recording on your webphone, or any other devices (softphone, mobile app):
- Dial 611 from any net2phone Canada device
- Or call 1-877-498-3772 (option 3)
