A:AnswerIf you play around a bit, there is a menu item that tells you to have the ring on all 'phones. Lots of stuff to learn -- 75-page manual and lots and lots of choices. Easy set-up, tho', for making and answering calls right away. New technology always has too much stuff!
A:AnswerHi - The VTech IS8151-4 can register up to 12 cordless handsets. The compatible handset for this unit is the model IS8101.

A:AnswerHi - the actual operating range of the VTech IS8151-4 may vary depending on the environmental conditions and other interferences such as walls, doors and other obstructions. The handsets may not be able to communicate with the base if installed in a separate building.

A:AnswerNo my only real complaint is the phone book doesn’t scroll so when you get to s say you can’t easily get to the name without using arrow down. It’s much quieter as callers have to use a pound sign to get through and the salespeople don’t do that. Now after I use this more the phone book may get easier. It will be nice during the upcoming election season I think.
