Do you mean the AT&T CL81301 Cordless telephone? This model doesn't have an answering system. You'd need to adjust the number of rings for your voicemail system through the telephone company's system. See the manual here: https://att.vtp-media.com/media/p/document2/products/%7B40A22BFC-681D-46DC-B836-7CB7C7A691FE%7D/CL81101_CIB_5_610.pdf . If you mean the AT&T CL82301 or the CL83301, first make sure that the system is set to Answer On. Do this with the base Answer On/Off button or through the Menu system (see below for accessing the Answering System menu). You'll need the Answer On/Off line in the handset menu. With the phone system idle (no calls in or out, no one using another handset), press Menu/Select. Use the Up(DIR)/Down(CID) arrows to navigate to Answering Sys. Press Menu/Select. Navigate to Ans Sys Setup and press Menu/Select. Navigate to # of Rings and press Menu/Select. Use the up/down arrows to choose the number of rings and press Menu/Select to Save. Press Off/Cancel to exit the menu system. The manual for this cordless telephone system is available at ManualsLib, https://www.manualslib.com/products/AtAndt-Cl82301-165464.html . See page 47 of the manual, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/643600/AtAndt-Cl82101.html?page=53#manual . Note: if you choose Toll Saver, the answering system will pick up after two rings if you have new messages. It will pick up after 4 rings if there are no new messages. I hope this helps. If you have a different AT&T CL8 * 301, please add a comment with the correct second digit in the model number. Cindy Wells

Is this just for your home or do your neighbours have the same problem? I hope I can help you further, a few more details would help me be able to help you.

Do you hear tones when you press the buttons to dial?Many phones have the option to dial by pulses instead of tones. Make sure your phone is set to tones.

If you need the remote access code for the answering system, then the original (default) access code is given in the manual on page 50 (page 53 of the PDF) and on 55 (page 58 of the PDF). See the manual online at https://att.vtp-media.com/ecp/documents/product_Product/364/UserManual/5977/SL82118_manual_i10.pdf . Unfortunately, if the remote access code has been changed, the default code will not work. As far as I know there is no way to reset the SL82318 remote access code to the factory default remotely. See page 50 of the manual to reset the phone's access code when you are using the handset. When you use the handset and start to change the code, the current remote access code will be announced first. Any voice mail system would be accessed using the phone number and codes from your telephone service provider. This information will not correspond to the answering system of the SL82318. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

Reverse the polarity of the phone wires. -Some phones are sensitive to this; others do not seem to mind. I believe you should reverse the red and green.

Check your ground wire where the phone line comes into the junction box outside your house. It is either loose or corroded. It should be clean and clamped to a ground stake or water pipe like for an outdoor hose faucet. Check both ends of the wire. Without it, the phone system's impedance is so high that it will receive the 60 Hz hum from any electrical appliances around the house that are within a few feet of a line on an extension phone, answering machine or even an extension phone outlet wire running through a wall. These make great receiving antennas. good luck.

Take the back cover off your phone and remove the battery. You will find the IMEI on the label there.
