Is there anyway to mute my VTech 5.8 phone? I am going to be on a conference call for 2 hours.

Conference calling is required in any company with a branch located either domestically or internationally. It's quite normal to get on the conference calling with teams from other branches, partner firms, or even clients on a weekly basis. A good conference call service is the one that understands your company's requirements and acts on it diligently to provide crystal clear call quality and also offers you flexible payment plans.

On top of the calling facility, a conference call equipment needs to have some very essential features, some of which include- mute/un-mute, local dial-in number, anytime conference, start without host, chairperson dial control, roll call security, chairperson or guest PIN security, etc.

Such a calling facility in India is provided by Reliance MindBridge which is the leader in telecommunication in the country and offers fantastic deals for businesses needing conference call service to 230 countries and territories all over the world.

Hi! Some phone can be muted using the silence mode->this way the phone will ring but it vibrates instead of a loud preset song. So just press and hold this button "#" and the phone will turn the silent mode on/off.
I hope this will help you! Have a nice day!

The VTech CS6229-2 - cordless phone has a two handset systems provide the convenience of operating two handsets using only one phone jack and one base station. The second handset simply needs an electrical outlet to plug into. These systems also allow you to transfer calls, conference an outside call or use the intercom feature between handsets.
Here's an online instruction manual for your guide: http://www.manualowl.com/m/Vtech/CS6229-2/Manual/196794

Some cell phones don't mute, but a *6 will mute your phone to the conference call center, and #6 will unmute if you wish to say something. This will not mute your phone, so when you hang up...you're always good to go to make calls. It only mutes a phone (any phone) to the server conducting the conference.

WHEN you are in conference ..
go to options(that is press left soft key)..dont worry the call will be continued..
then,it displays a list of options,press down until you see mute,click mute and the calls will be muted...

Use intercom to make conference an outside call.....

sounds as if you will need your vendor to program your phone and others that need be to have Handsfree/mute capabilities.. i assume since you can not mute then you can not place your phone on Handsfree either.

sounds strange, it lookslike a main board problem, considering that u have been using similar unit before.there is not much that u can do from the menu options.u will have to refer ur vendor for rpairs

to mute while you are on a conference call, the has to be on speaker then push the mic buttonto turn it off.
