A:AnswerHello! The range of the handsets is approximately 33 feet from the base unit. The range will also be influenced by the environment in which the phone system is placed, and if there are any electronics around that would weaken the signal (such as microwave ovens, Wi-Fi routers, radios). -C
A:AnswerHello! In addition to the standard manual call block function, this model offers two additional options for call blocking. One of these features is automated call block. With automated call block, the device screens incoming calls before ringing for permitted calls, or it terminates calls without ringing for calls identified as robocalls, telemarketing calls, or other unwanted calls (available for Caller ID subscribers). The unit plays a greeting message for automated call block and prompts the caller to enter an access code to determine if the call is automated. Additionally, you can utilize Telemarketing call block to further filter calls and prevent telemarketer calls from reaching you. With this feature, the unit prompts callers to announce their names, and after verifying the names, you can choose whether to answer the calls or not. -M
A:AnswerMy guess is that your phone supplier may also provide you with answering service. You can probably get you messages if you go to your account with the phone service provider. If you want the messages to go to your phone answer machine you can set it up to pick up after a certain amount of rings. Just make sure it is set to pick up after fewer rings than the provider answering service picks up.
