I would suggest the length of ring from commencement to when iiNet answers 
message needs to be addressed.
Remember iiNet's service is first others work in conjunction with.
System does work with Panasonic, and all others..

 We need it to record and not interfere with the modem.

Re: Phones and iinet naked

2011-06-13 Thread Eugene de Gouw


Hi Tom,

I use a Uniden DSS-8955+2 answering machine that came with 3 handsets.  
I bought it off eBay from this dealer.


http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/UNIDEN-5-8-GHz-DIGITAL-CORDLESS-PHONE-DSS-8955-2-WI-FI-/330530419882?pt=AU_Telephoneshash=item4cf525f4aa 



The product is described as refurbished, which means they could be  
factory returns. I've had no problems with them. At $69 and including  
3 handsets the price is 1/2 to 1/3 of what you expect to pay from  
others. There are also more expensive looking units as well. They are  
all WiFi friendly.


The answering machine works as expected but as mentioned I prefer the  
e-mail answering machine as I might not be home when a call comes in  
and I can respond to it at work.


The answering machine can be accessed from any handset in the house  
and the handsets work as intercom units - great for waking up the kids.

Hi Tom,

I’ve had Oricom Digital DECT Cordless Phones set  Panasonic.
They both worked well, normally the Answering Machine is preset to ON, but you 
do have to set them up correctly.

Cheers,
Ronni
