How many ringers does the phone have & would I be able to change it myself?

My sighted wife checked the ringer setting, and the volume is turned all the
way up.

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
