Yes, you can set up a password for the answering machine. When you call your home, as the message is playing, you enter the code and it will play your messages. The manual has several codes that will help you play, skip, delete, etc. I made a credit card sized "cheat" list of all the codes for my wallet.

On the base unit, theres a button that reads "ANS ON". Press the button to toggle answering system on or off. This is also possible to set through the handset menu. Full manual is here: http://cdn-media.vtechphones.com/media/p/document2/products/%7B85109243-9E3A-46B8-B28C-915F427C951F%7D/DS6671-3__CUM_1.pdf

Sorry - don't know what to tell you, I have never had any difficulty with my answering machine. I think I'd return the system, as it sounds like it is defective.

It is a 4 line phone. Not an answering machine. If your speaking of the intercom on it there is a volume control on top of the phone. There is also a DND (Do Not Disturb) button.

In the instructions with the phone, it will tell you how to set up voice mail and set your password

The unit I purchased has it's own answering machine. I'm not sure if it can to hooked up to another machine.

Hi Daisy, To set this up with a separate answering machine you will need three phone cords. If you do not have enough you can pick them up at any Walmart or hardware store. Start by running a phone line from the wall to the Caller ID unit input. Then run a phone line from the Caller ID unit output to the answering machine input. The run the last phone line from the answering machine output to the telephone. This will ensure that each device is in the proper order to do it's job:). I hope this helps!

I recall it being pretty easy to follow the instructions and set up the answering machine. I left the generic voice.

Mine came with instructions. I have never answered from the base. Now when the phone rings they all ring also when the answering machine answers it plays on all phone if you don't answer your call.

You just pick up a regular phone and dial. There is a standard dial tone and you dial just like any landline. Setup is fast and easy.

I have my answering machine on one outlet and the caller ID on a different outlet and have had no problem. Iwould think you could also set it up as outlet>caller ID>answering machine

See pages 32 and 33 of the user manual which can be downloaded from the Vtech web site.From a cordless handset, press MENU then SELECT to show messagesFrom another phone line, dial the phone number then enter the 2 digit security code you have set up. This assumes you have already configured and turned on the answering system.

I haven't tried to set up voice mail on my wife's phone. You will need to talk to the net 10 technicial support for this answer. Sorry I couldn't help. Robert

We use the Verizon answering service, so I can't say for sure. My guess is you plug the answering machine into the ringer, then the phone into the answering machine.
