The Panasonic set we now have temporarily mutes the conversation on line one when the second line rings. Does this set do that?

No, this phone does not mutes while in conversation on line 1 when the 2nd line rings. I've been using this instrument with 2 working lines for last 15days and so far no such problems.

Sorry but my 3-set Panasonic phones are connected to as regular landline. Other than just blocking calls u can edit the caller's ID so u can actually tell who is calling each time! Love it!

We regret to inform you this system requires the handset to be answered prior to speaking from another. Full details can be found in the below link. ftp://ftp.panasonic.com/telephone/om/kx-tg9541_kx-tg9542_om.pdf#page=31

Yes I have had more problems with the set also. Voice commands are not close to what they were when I first got it. It began about 3 months after I had it!

Just checked. It has a Handset setting and then a volume setting that you can turn down to mute. It does not have one button if that is what you want. I really like this phone. We have had our set for several years. Good volume and quality. Also, it is one of the few phones with a handset phone jack for plugging in a head set. In fact I just order this phone again to replace 2 others in the house that have aged and are not working well.

It has a "soft" button that becomes the mute button when you're on a call. There's one on the base unit as well as the phone(s).

I actually like this feature as I know who is calling before picking up the handset. To answer your question if the answering system is set to two rings the unit does not announce the caller. If "Toll saver" feature is on, the unit does not announce the caller. The unit does announce the caller if the caller information is stored in the phonebook. I hope this helps.

You have the option to mute the call...not a button u see until u make a call snd the the mute option is displayed in screen and u hit top left button to mute. Love these phones

Not exactly sure if device itself has a mute feature, but if you mute the call using mute option on device, you should achieve desired result

I tested this out via my 2-line system...i.e. I called my 2nd line from the 1st line as well as using the base unit's speaker phone...and we could both talk at the same time w/o any loss of communication. Perhaps communicating with other speakerphone brands the results may be different but via my Panasonic units we have no problem.

So what you are saying is that when someone calls the house using a cell phone the panasonic phone blocks those calls? but allows land based phone calls to go through? Is it all all cell phone callers or just one or two? I never heard of that happening so not sure why the panasonic would be doing that because really it doesnt know what device on the far end is making the call.

There is the capability of silencing the ring tone, however,one must reactivate the ring tone manually. No know call blocking feature. One may set the ring tone to off for callers that block their number(s). Hope this helps. Overall we are pleased with this product.

If you're talking about the ringer, yes. You can put all the handsets and base on silent mode. You can also program the ringer to different tones, depending on who calls. It's quite a nice phone system....best Panasonic I've had yet.

Raymondo - Press MUTE. The caller cannot hear you during mute (you can still hear caller). When you want to resume the conversation, press MUTE again. Thanks!

We have had our 3 handsets for over 5 years without a problem with any of the sets. I you still have the instruction manual, you might want to check the feature which allows you to block calls. We have never used that function and I do not have any idea how to activate or deactivate that feature. Are you able to receive calls from other land line phones still, and is it from all cell numbers, or just one specific number? Sorry that I cannot be of more help, but you might want to go to the Panasonic website and see if they may be of assistance. Loren

I had this problem. The person on the other end of my call always complained of hearing a delay/echo when speaking. I turned off noise suppression (settings&gt;networks tab&gt;call&gt;noise suppression) and poof, no more complaints. I had had this phone for only a couple days at that point so I'm not sure if it was really something to do with the case, or just something quirky with the phone.

I haven't had this problem either. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure that the landline is hung up and not on speaker when using the headset.
