Can I use my home phone number? Or dose it need a seperate number?

So far I have used mine only to send faxes, using my home phone. I believe there is a setting so that you can set it to use as a phone or as a fax or both. I am sure you don't have to have a separate number. It gets confusing if you receive a lot of faxes and have to change it back and forth.

You do use your home number. The only downside is that you have to choosee whether your voicemail or fax answers if you don't. I keep voicemail on unless I am expecting a fax. For outbound faxes this isn't a problem.

I bought this for my mother, so don't have it here to check, but I'm pretty sure you can use it with your home number. The owner's manual is available on Panasonic's website; you can see all the details there.

You only need one per phone line. If you have 4 phones, but they all share the same number, then all you need is one.

I think you are asking if you are out of your home can you call your phone to retrieve messages. Yes, you can. The phone is set with 500 as the password to your messages, but you can change this number if you choose to - check the information book for directions. What you do is dial your phone number, and when you hear your message to callers, dial 500 (or another number you may choose), and you should be able to retrieve your messages.

Yes as long as you use the same SIM card or take the phone to your carrier. If you are switching carriers you will need your account number and PIN number from your current carrier to move your number.

As far as I know, yes. I kept my phone number and you should be able to keep yours as well. As a double-up: front page of PhonePower says "Keep Your Existing Number For Free". ;)

I use google voice for my phone number. You can specify the area code and select a number... You configure the OBI to address the particular google voice account which ties it to the phone number. I would guess that you can then re-associate and thereby change the number...

No. I think you have to get that from phone company, "call rejection service". However, you can put numbers into groups with varied ring tones.

The quick answer is not at this time. You must choose a google voice number for the calls to be funneled thru to your home number. Since the Google Voice number I choose is what I advertise as my business phone, it works out very well. I found the most helpful link on the Google Voice info site is https://support.google.com/voice/answer/115073?hl=en&ref;_topic=1707989.

I have caller id with my phone company...so I am not sure if it would work if you did not have that option.

You sure can, honey. It won't matter if you get a new phone. The number stays the same unless you contact the phone company to change it.

only if you were to both have separate phone numbers and separate base units with each listed as each others 1st call but you would not be able to talk for long as pressing 5 stops the rotation and neither would have a hand set to do this. The simple answer is no.

I do not know because I have not had the need to do so. I'm sure it's a possibility because it's connected with the home address which is one of the criteria for a 911 call so that the location could be ascertain easily. Hope this help. The unit is amazing and it's far more superior to MagicJack. It's the best phone unit in the market today.

You can activate it. I would suggest going to a boost store if you are not already set up on boost. If you want to keep your old phone number again I would suggest going to the store.

In most cases, yes. I live in NJ and had a long existing business/home number. Verizon was able to port it over to Ooma without any problem, but only Ooma customer service can give you a definitive answer. I think that they warn you that there are occasionally SOME numbers that cannot be ported for one reason or another.

There are no out going numbers needed, This is a system to receive emails, not send them! Any working phone line will suffice.
