working prop-

ers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms,

• Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your telephone.

 

It is normal to experience static on your telephone while the micro-

 

wave oven is operating. Do not install this telephone in the same

 

outlet or near a microwave oven.

 

• If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector,

 

plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into a different loca-

 

tion. If this solves the problem, re-locate your telephone or modem

 

farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.

range. Trying moving the base to another location, preferably a higher

 

location for better reception.

 

• Disconnect the telephone base from the modular jack and plug in a

 

corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably

 

in the wiring or local service. Contact the local telephone company

 

(charges may apply).

 

• Select channels 4 through 10 for your router (refer to the user's man-

the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact the local tele-

 

phone company (charges may apply).

 

• Do you have DSL service? If yes, you need to have a DSL filter

 

installed at every telephone jack that has a telephone connected to it.
