They pretty much didn't, which was part of the problem. The closest ship didn't have a wireless operator on duty (just before going to bed, he had attempted to warn the Titanic by radio about ice ahead, and had been told to "shut up" since the Titanic's wireless operator was busy), and the ships that did pick up the distress call were too far away to arrive in time (the nearest ship that responded to the distress call was almost 60 miles away... about four hours travel time).
