Once it's activated can I run a line from the SPA122 to a wall jack and get a dial tone on a wired phone connected to a wall jack in a different room?

Never tried that but I don't know why that wouldn't work.Keep in mind you have be configured to a SIP server first.

Yah. The reason I got it was because it has a REN (Ring Equivalency Number of 5). You build / get a cable with a plug @ each end. One in in the SPA112, one in the phone wiring jack. As long as there is no more than an REN load of 5 on your in house phone system, you're golden. Old (really OLD) phones have an REN of 1. Newer phone have the REN on the base. Generally, with powered phones, that's a lot less than 1.

if there is an incoming phone line yes it will work simply plug the line into the wall jack then from ringer to v tech base

No. It is a simple multi room toner so u can find the line you need in a mess. What you asking about is a signal level meter which can be VERY pricey. this device tones out lines for coaxial data and phone

You can run a line from a phone jack. I mounted the phone on the wall and ran the cable. I have phone service through my cable company. Works great. They give about a 6 foot phone cable with the phone.

I have this unit, and looked inside the jack. It is wired with 2 pins, so only one phone line.

Yes, but you asked about phones plural, so keep in mind that you would need 1 Spa112 adapter for every 1 analog phone you want to convert to VoIP. Also remember the analog phone has to be close enough to a hub/router so that you can run the cables. Here's the basic setup: -You have the analog phone and a standard RJ11 phone cable (would normally run from phone to wall). -Instead, you run the RJ11 phone cable from the phone to the RJ11 port on the Spa112 adapter. -Then you run an Ethernet cable from the Spa112 adapter to your hub/router/modem. Keep in mind, this will need to be configured not only for your local network (the adapter has the standard Cisco web UI), but with your VoIP provider as well. You will have to call your VoIP provider so they can register the Spa112 device(s) on their end. The setup doesn't require a technical maven, but it does require quite a bit of configuration, especially to point an existing VoIP service at this device. I could have bought this preconfigured directly from the VoIP provider, but because it was preconfigured for their specific service, it was $20-30 more. It's certainly less hassle to get these preconfigured from your VoIP provider, but it really depends how good their customer service is. My provider was happy to help me set this up for no charge.

curious if you figured this out...i just remodeled my house and ran speaker wire in 3 different locations that I would like to control from one unit and have the ability to listen to 1 room, 2 or all 3

Hi, Christopher. This unit will not do that, however you can accomplish this using a Cisco Linksys SPA3102. It allows you to plug an analog line into it (technically called an FXO device), whereas the PAP2 is just to plug a phone into it (an FXS device). Hope this helps!

you need this device if your phone service is one pert of the house and you can't run wires to another part where you'd also like service. You need phone jacks to plug into this, one on each end. If your phone service provides a phone jack that allows you to plug a handset or fax machine into it, then this should work.

Yes. The connection sequence is from the wall jack to the call blocker, then to the phone. In most cases, our phone doesn't even ring when a blocked call is received.

No. The standard phone service thats been around since I guess the 1960's (wall jacks) is referred to as land line. As long as your internet service provider (which can be a cable tv company) offers VOIP service, with a VOIP modem & router your incoming & outgoing calls are madel thru your internet service. If your utilities go out, your internet & phone won't work. BEFORE you buy the motorola: Ask your internet service company if there Internet VOIP service works with this motorola. If not, they have one they will charge you monthy charges. So again, no you do not need land line (wall outlet) phone carrier service. Hope this helps.

I cannot verify, but i believe so! you are simply programming each system to one pushbutton. If you already have a wired doorbell, you can use this to extend. So when your wired pushbutton is pressed, your wired doorbell will ring downstairs and your wireless will ring upstairs

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. :)

Can you connect a Magic Jack without a phone home line IF I have wireless internet?
1129093
I haven't done any real research on that but it seem that is not possible. As the "connection" of the handset to the Internet or your standard line is made wireless to a base, which cannot be accesed by software... I understand your question but i'm not sure about the possibility of using a different handset... at least you can use a "headset" as it have standard plug for that on the phone :P

I don't know, I'm only purchased this and am using this to connect to the telephone/DSL wall jack...sorry!

Yes, or this can be configured as a different number, all analog phones that are connected (say you plug it into the normal phone jack for your home and have 2 other phones (powered or with a total REN of <5... powered via power adapter, are normally a ren of .5 or less) but all these phones will share the same line (someone could pick up another ext and hear the conversation in progress)
