[Electronics-Talk] [EXTERNAL] phone with caller ID

[Diane Vlasoff]

Sorry Rob,
In line that was a poor choice of words on my part. It's not a setting actually on my phone it's a slider and on some phones it's a spinning wheel. So if you look around the edges of your phone there should be something that turns the volume up and down or even off. Good luck hope this works.

Sent using dictation.  sometimes it works and sometimes the mistakes can be funny.  please forgive anything in between.

My fiancé checked and it doesn't look like there are any different ringers.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Rob,

with all due respect, have you checked the ringer setting?

You would think that someone would come up with a landline phone that would
talk inableing us to set everything up. I have a Panasonic phone where the
ringer is so soft that I can hardly hear it. No, I'm not hard of hearing.

We sure can.

On a real note, where can I find the Verizon digital line/FiOS codes, e.g.
the code for blocking callers who have no ID. Thanks.--Matthew Chao
