Shaw Distinctive Ring
With Shaw Distinctive Ring you can have up to three additional telephone numbers assigned to your home phone line. It’s not an extra line, but a feature that allows your home telephone to ring differently depending on what number a caller dials. This allows you to assign a distinctive ring to any member in the house so you’ll know who the call is for based on the ring tone. You can also assign a Shaw Distinctive Ring to your fax machine so you can tell regular calls from incoming faxes. Call
