I have Comcast Xfinity and the caller ID that comes with it. Will this Digitone Call Blocker work with it?

I use Verizon, so I can't positively answer your question, but most telephone circuit transport providers follow certain guidelines that don't allow them to block all the numbers you want them to.The Digitone call blocker has no such restrictions, and allows you to block out whom ever you choose.

as far as i know it will work with all phones and services. i have a straight talk box and it works with it very well.

I have Verizon FIOS phone service, so I cannot answer with certainty, but the Digitone is the "first line of defense", so as long as your service provides the incoming number, or labels the call as "unavailable" or "unknown", it should work fine.

As long as the number and caller ID shows up on your regular phone it should work fine since this is the data it needs to respond.

Hi: I too have Xfinity. What you end up with is two caller IDs; one on the Digitone and one on Xfinity. Works perfectly. No to worry.

Yes, you can block callers, if you subscribe to Caller ID with your phone company. The instructions on how to do so are on page 30 of the operating instructions booklet. I have used this with great success. Callers that you have blocked will get a "busy" signal. Your phone will ring once, with Blocked Call showing on the screen. Hope this helps.

With the Digitone you can block any call manually, but there is auto blocking too that my wife has not explained to me so far. All said, I'm tickled with ours and I do recommend it to my best friends.

The DCB Plus in Standard Mode from the factory already blocks calls with less than 7 digits. So if you only see "1" displayed, then that call will automatically be blocked for you.

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking. Here's what I know.... The Digitone call blocker is an analog device designed for regular non-digital wall jacks. Is your telephone handset truly digital? If you unplugged it and went over to a friend's house who has an analog system, would it work? What matters is what's going on between your router and your handset. If that is a true digital interface, the Digitone won't work. On the other hand, if by 'digital' you mean wireless, then this will probably work.

It's free and is built-in to phone. This is the greatest feature! Any call you've receive with a digit ID can be blocked. Once done, your phone will ring once if they call you again, then they're gone. The caller continues to hear the phone ring so no one is upset with a rejection notice of any kind. It's awesome.

Short answer, yes. The unit uses Caller ID to identify the calls you want to block.

This was copied from the Pro Call Blocker website. "3. Will your units work with my VOIP service? Yes. As long as you have active Caller ID service. Please contact us if you have a "Digital Voice" type of VoIP service, as there are a few known issues with a few of the setups that are brand new to the market. Comcast XFINITY setups typically do not send enough of the necessary electricity to power the unit, so until further notice Comcast XFINITY customers should not purchase our units. Please note that if you are a Comcast customer with one of their traditional landline plans or non-XFINITY phone setups, the Pro Call Blocker will work just fine."

ONLY if you want to see the phone number that is calling, otherwise it will follow the lists you establish. My unit stopped working after about a year. I discovered in the meantime that my cable phone service (Charter) provided tools to prevent problem calls. When it worked it did fine but I evidently was not the only person who had problems with its service. PS - if your power goes off you have to reprogram the unit again - a pain.

According to Ascendis Software, the modem does indeed support Caller ID: http://www.ascendis.com/callerid/modems.php [Edit] I bought two of these, and the caller ID on my Verizon landline has been inconsistent for both, missing catching the ID on about 50% the calls. Other modems work fine on my line. I see another person who had the same complaint: http://ascendis.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1356&sid=e6ce8636a0b943df381989b71ba23781

It should, it works with Comcast and I think the technology is the same. Connect it to any phone jack on phone side of the cable modem. Only downfall we found on our Comcast setup is the caller ID stops working, but well worth the benefit. Not one telemarketer has made our phone ring since we got this.

Yes, indeed, it does allow blocking single numbers or a range of numbers. Additionally, it allows for blocking an unknown CID. Hope this helps.

I stopped using this call blocker since I found that once I had blocked a call on this blocker I would follow the steps to unblock a given number and it never unblocked that number. I switched instead to the Digitone Call Blocker and have had no problem with it.So I didn't really answer your question - only alerted you to problems that I had with this. Since I have discarded this call blocker (for the reasons I gave above) I no longer have mine available to answer your question. But I did give you my closest approximation.Good luck!

From my experience, I don't think so. Although, you can call block any number you want. If a blocked call comes in it rings once then stops. It will appear on the caller id as call blocked. I love this feature and have used many times. You only have to block the call once in the directory.

In my case it worked with Time Warner Cable so I think it will work with Comcast. In general,I would say that wherever your ordinary phone ringer works the Super Ringer will work. Note: you need 120 volt AC power to operate the Super Ringer.

The user's manual gives no reference to Call Block. It does support Caller ID which may have call block supported by your service provider. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can. As a matter of fact, I think it automatically blocks calls from "UNKNOWN, PRIVATE" and you can allow certain numbers to get through if you want or keep them blocked. All numbers called to your phone will display but the blocked calls that you select will be displayed with "BLOCKED". I love the Digitone Call Blocker. You can program it several ways and is easy to do. I hope this helps.
