Call-Waiting Caller ID Shows Intermittently

<< < (2/2)

Up above you said "...have tested this with my other phones I own."  So at this point all I can think of is try a different handset, or better yet get a Y connector and plug in two handsets and see if they both behave the same way.

P.S: Is this phone port 1 or 2?  I'm asking because port 1 on an Obi202 is actually setup for two lines, if you plug a two line phone cord and a two line handset into it, you get both both lines 1 and 2 through one port and one cable. I've noticed some occasional odd behaviors doing this (one or twice the wrong line gets the Caller ID or the VMWI signal), and I know it's not the two-line handset because that worked flawlessly for ten years with two lines when plugged into the PSTN (Verizon.)

Jenn:
The phones are currently on Port 1. I have even swapped ports but they do not seem to make a difference here for this particular issue. Also, these phones have worked perfectly on the Verizon PSTN systems you were referring to.

I've done a lot more testing and I discovered that the phone on the longer telephone cable suffers from this. The phones on the shorter cable do not seem to have a problem. (I have actually been using the Y-adapter / Y-splitter setup all this time.)

CoalMinerRetired:
I'm out of ideas. However I will like to know what the cause was once you finally solve it, please close the loop and reply again when you fix it.
