can I make a separate call on one line while someone is talking on the other one
880703
Yes, that is no problem, It's like having two separate phones. There is an indicator that tells you when either line 1 or 2 is in use.
880704
Yes, if you have a 2 line phone that means there are 2 separate lines for calls

yes, what you do is figure out which line is on hold. then hit "line" button followed by 1,2,3, or 4 depending which line you would like to select. then hit the "select/save" button and it will pick up the call.

I take that to be asking if each fxs/phone port receive phone calls separately. The answer is yes. You can have two phone calls going at once, or conference call/put on hold on a 2-line phone. You could, if you wanted, use one phone line for yourself and run the other to your neighbor's house and send them a monthly phone bill, etc. The two lines have separate SIP logins and can have different phone numbers, or even different SIP/VOIP providers. The only thing you can't do is have radically different internet settings, like different IP's, one on a VPN and the other not, or something weird like that.

I'm not an expert but it looks to me that you would need a second unit to handle the second line. It works very, very well. Haven't had any calls ring my phone that I didn't want to answer. Does block caller ID but who cares now.

Yes, there is a function on the phones for intercom between hand sets, they both have to be in the intercom position and the base would have to be on but doesn't have to have the phone line connected.

Yes. Just pick up the receiver and press talk as if you were answering the phone and both of you will be able to talk.

YES YOU CAN. (You can confirm this in the user manual by using Google search for "AT&T TL88102 manual", and see page 12.) NEARLY unbelieveable flexible features include using "settings" to set the volume level on each handset for both lines separately. You can set the volume to "off" on one or both lines and the handset won't ring for the line just on that handset. Also: the voice quality on this system is fantastically good.
1295148
Yes. There is a switch that allows the choice of a 5 minute delay or a 30 minute delay after which the calls are initiated.

Yes and you can conference both lines together but you must have 2 phone lines

You can use the intercom button when you are not otherwise talking on the phone, just to buzz one of the other phones... it will ask which line you want to buzz. The ring sounds different so you know it is an intercom/house call. I hope this answers your question. :)

If I understand your question, the answer is yes. If a call comes in my husband can listen to the call on one handset while I listen on another without any dialing--we just each click on the #Talk" button

You can plug two different phone lines (different numbers) into the same phone and be able to answer either number using the same phone. You can also conference the two lines together. I use one in my home office so I can answer my office or home phone fro the same unit.

You can call any of the handsets from other rooms and talk to each other on the intercom setting. I love these phones they work great and serve my purpose very well. They are clear and I have no problems with them. I bought them for a voip phone setup in my house I needed 3 wireless phones and these are the best ones I found for the price and they work GREAT!

I think you can. I don't. But when someone is on the phone another person can make and receive calls to the same number. It's pretty cool. I hope this answer helps :)

Absolutely. This is a super system and we regularly have separate calls at the same time on different handsets. Both lines can work at once perfectly well.
