The caller may not be calling from an area which su pports caller ID.
Both your and your caller’s telephone servi ce providers must use equipment
compatible with the caller ID servi ce.
The caller ID information shows after the r st or second ring.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet s ervice (digital subscriber l ine - DSL) through

and the telephone wall jack. The lter prevents n oise and caller ID problems caused
