    Hi ​@Andy Ahrens,

    To help you shorten the number of rings before a call gets forwarded from your desk phone to your mobile, we’ll want to check a few settings in your Call Handling & Forwarding rules.

    Before diving in, could you help clarify a few details so I can guide you better?

    •  Are you using Call Forwarding or the Call Handling settings under your user extension to send calls to your mobile?
    • Should the call ring your desk phone first, then your mobile — or do you want both to ring at the same time?
    •  Roughly how many rings or seconds are you aiming for before your mobile starts ringing?
    •  Is this for direct calls to your extension, or calls routed from a group like a call queue or auto-receptionist?
    •  Do you have access to update your Call Handling settings via the RingCentral app or online portal?

    Once I have this info, I can walk you through the exact steps to shorten the ring time or reconfigure your ring sequence.
