Multi handset cordless phones

Post by shardman1 »

When I plug a multiple handset phone into the MJ it will not ring all the phones. It rings different phones at random and I can only answer the one that rings. The others will not work. This problem could be on here somewhere, but the search tool will not yield any results after trying many different terms for several hours. In fact I am rarely able to get results from the search tool that are related to my query. Any help would be appreciated.

To me it sounds like you need a POWERED USB hub..

If your talking about cordless phones with the base unit plugged into MJ and at least one phone rings then the base unit has detected the ring signal from MJ. The base unit then sends the ring onto the other units. If other phones do not ring it sounds to me like the problem is in your cordless phone system not MJ.

The system works fine on a POTS line.
