Is it the same flight number, with an intermediate stop? I would think that the way around that is to piece the trip together, making sure you are on different flight numbers for each leg.

Every mainland airline that I'm familiar treats the above as two segments (four if you do it both ways), but only one segment if it is the same plane and flight number but with a stopover along the way.
