The telephone does not receive caller ID or the telephone does not
show caller ID during call waiting.
Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features provided by your
telephone service provider.
The caller might not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.
Both your and the caller’s telephone service providers must use equipment
compatible with caller ID service.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line - DSL) through
your telephone lines, you must install a DSL lter between the telephone base and
the telephone wall jack. The lter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by
DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information
about DSL lters.
