Troubleshooting
Problem
There is noise or interference during a telephone conversation
Suggestion
•The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
•Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same circuit as the telephone base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or telephone base to another outlet.
•Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, wireless routers, and other cordless telephones.
•Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your telephone. It is normal to experience static on your telephone while the microwave 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 location. If this solves the problem,
•The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Trying moving the telephone 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 four through 10 for your router (refer to the user's manual of your router for more information).
•If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact the local telephone 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. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.
