Can you mute / turn off the ring of a one call at a time? Specifically, you have the ring turned on. You can't pick up, but you need to mute the ring.

I don't know if I can answer your question correctly. The phone has a commute for the speaker and also has a on and off ring control and to settings for ring volume.it has a flash key for transferring calls and other local phone company services. However, it has only a single incoming Jack receptacle.

There is a switch on the side of the phone base - you can either turn off the ringer or adjust the volume.

There is a menu option called Call Sharing. Turn it off to keep other phones from hearing/joining in. It comes turned ON, so if you want all your calls to be private, turn it OFF.

Raymondo - Press MUTE. The caller cannot hear you during mute (you can still hear caller). When you want to resume the conversation, press MUTE again. Thanks!

I guess that would be the downfall of the phone. I have not found a way to turn the ringer off or down, other than to unplug it. I don't mind as I do not get many calls on the land line. Thanks!

you can control the ringer on each line... for example if line 2 is a fax... you can turn off the ringer on 2 and leave line 1 ringer on

No, there is no Hold button. Pressing the call button while on a call will end the current call, and pressing the mute button only mutes your microphone. I suppose this is only a problem if you want your caller to hear some kind of hold music, otherwise muting the mic should work just fine.

Sorry, but I am coming up with the same thing as you. The only thing I can figure is that you may just tap it for mute and hold down for off. I have not had a chance to try this yet so I am just guessing. Hope this is of some help.

No, I don't think so; I didn't see a menu option for that. The system appears to be designed around the concept of a different ring tone for the various callers. I really like that because I always know if a family member is calling.

Yes, each handset rings independently as does the base unit.You can mute the handset as it rings by pushing the end button and the other handsets will continue to ring.

yes you can, you just go to menu and select initial settings, scroll to talking caller id and push select, then select either on or off. you can have one on and the others off, its up to you on a per handset basis. It really is a nice phone and it goes all the way to my neighbors;(we live in a trailer park) without crackeling or any type of distortion. :) hope this helped!

Yes, you need to do it for each one. Using Menu - select ringers-home volume-then turn down the volume until it is "off"

There are about 10 different ringtones to choose from. Some more annoying than others. I chose the more subtle rings. One for my cell phone, another for my home line so I know which phone is ringing. You can also adjust the volume of the rings. Hope this helps.

OK, I just did a quick test to answer your question. I went approximately at least 300 feet to my neighbor's house across the street from my house. What I did was call my wife on her cell and we chatted as I did that walk to the neighbor's front door. It was always crystal clear per the wife on her cell as well as the unit I took with me. In regards to the Ringers. Yes, you have the "Option" of turning either or both of them off. The Hand-Held Unit or the Base Unit. These phones work great and I replaced every phone in my house with them. Terry

My phone only rings when the calling party actually presses a 1 when asked by the machine. Otherwise, if the caller stays on the line, the call is routed to my answering machine. The phone never rings if the 1 is not pressed. There are some alternate settings that allow one to easily bypass the telebouncer and make the phone ring right away if that is needed. I have used that feature to accept calls from auto callers that I have asked to call my number and, when done, I reposition the telebouncer to the block telemarker position. We love this thing. Hope this helps.

yes you can. What you can't easily do is to turn off the ringer if you are trying not to answer the phone call.

No, you can't put it on hold, but you can mute the sound, so for the caller it would be like being on hold.
