I have no dial tone, calls ring in but I can not answer them.

I hope this helps.
You have the general tone for all incoming calls In order to assign tones you need to create your address book where you can assign the differnt tones.

Cheers!!!

I have a dial tone but can not make calls. and if the phone ring they can hear me but I cannot hear them

If your printer is connected to a modem make sure that the port has a dial tone. To check for dial tone, try to plug in a phone to the same port that you printer is connected to. If it doesn't have dial tone, you might want to check with your phone provider. Or you can plug in the printer straight to a wall jack.

Once the printer is connected to a line that has dial tone, you can then setup the printer to receive faxes. To set it up, on the control panel of your printer, press on Setup > Fax Setup > Ringing and Answering.

If you have an answering machine, set your printer to pick up 3 rings higher than your answering machine. If not, set it to pick up on the 5th ring that way you will still have time to pick up the phone if it's a voice call.

If you have a voicemail service from your phone provider, you'll need to contact your phone provider to get a distinctive ring feature. Once you'll have that feature, you can assign a distinctive ring to your printer. You can find that under Fax Setup > Ringing and Answering > Ring Pattern.

This is probably because dial tones and ringing tones are part of an archaic system. Your cell phone still makes these noises as a courtesy, and you hear the dial tones/ringing tones when you make regular calls because your phone is communicating with the standard phone system.

You need to assign an extension number to the set before it will stop the "reminder" ringing.

There are a number of things that could be wrong. It really depends on what kind of circuit you have. Is it strictly copper or does it come from a pair gain system? I have had trouble calls for this very reason and I isolated the trouble to a pair gain card in the field. Have you tried dialing out when you have no dial tone? Most people don't realize that dial tone is not a requirement to make phone calls. It's an added feature that lets people know that it's working. It could also be a high open. Just means that one side or both wires of the pair are close to being broke and sometimes very hard to see. I would keep calling because they won't know you have trouble until you do so. Plus you will have documentation that it's an ongoing problem. Good luck.

Another possibility is a shunt caused by spiders or whatever. These can get much worse when it get's wet. They might clear on a ring too.

I'm voting for number 1 unless there is more info provided.

I'd provide Verizon with the RENs of all the phones added up. There is probably a 1/2 ringer or (1/2 REN) in the NID.

You need to determine if it's inside or out.

if your phone had set for ringging assignment, u no need to press any key to answer the call.
check the indicator light,
if green light turn on, u can direct answer the call
if red light turn on, u ned to press the line to answer the call
kindly ask the phone provider the set yr extention for incoming ring assignment

Lift the handset, press the FWD/DND button, dial 2 and the extension you want your calls to forward to, you should get a comformation tone, hang up the handset.

Cancel the fordwarding by lifting the handset, press the FWD/DND button, dial 0 , get tone, hang up.

Good Luck

did u try removing the battery and reinserting after 2 min..

and if already tried,

then try dialing from oter phones, or check the assign tone in ur phone contact from which ur testing to be assigned with some ring tone...

If you set the profile ring tone to OFF. Then select a contacts' number and assign it a Ring Tone. When that contact calls you the Ring Tone you assigned will ring.
If you select the same Ring Tone for all your contacts in a group they will all sound the same when they call.
Or select the same ring tone for a profile, but cancel the Tone you assigned to the contact(s).
