Getting Started

How It Works

The Wireless Home Phone base uses the AT&T cellular network to provide phone service to your cordless or corded home phone(s). Place it anywhere in your house where you have a wireless signal. It does not require the use of a home phone wall jack like traditional home phone service.

The Wireless Home Phone base provides many calling services, such as voicemail, Caller Number ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, and Three-way Calling for your home phone(s). It also includes a back-up battery in case of a power outage.

Device Installation

Before You Begin

Your device works exclusively with the AT&T cellular network and DOES NOT use your home phone wall jacks.

Your device should be located:

•  Where you have a strong cellular signal, typically near a window or outside wall. Signal strength may vary in different parts of your home.

•  Near an electrical wall outlet.

Select which phone(s) you will use with the Wireless Home Phone base:

•  A cordless phone system with multiple handsets should be used to place phones throughout your home.

•  If using an existing phone, unplug it from the wall jack.
