this problem. The technician who installed your DSL service might have left some filters for you; if not, call your DSL provider or look in any electronics store.

Plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and plug your phone’s base into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.

Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing

Your phone can communicate with the telephone network in two different ways: tone dialing or pulse dialing. These days, most telephone companies use tone dialing. If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you will need to change your phone’s dial mode.

1)From a handset, open the menu & select Global Setup.

2)Select Dial Mode, then select Pulse. The phone sounds a confirmation tone.

If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a call (if you're using an automated response system, for example), press to temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call ends, the phone automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.

Resetting and Registering Handsets

When you reset a handset (or if you buy a new one), that handset displays a Handset Not Registered message. If you see this message on a handset, you need to register it to a base before you can use it.
