In normal mode, all handsets ring when a call comes in. But if you have it set on auto attendant, the caller gets sent to the voice menu, and only the base unit rings first. If the base unit doesn't get answered in the set time you give it, it goes to the voice menu and the caller can select which person they want to reach and then that phone will ring.

The short answer is yes. We have had this in place since August of last year and think it works great. The manual is online at http://cdn-media-att.vtp-media.com/ecp/documents/product_Product/1467/UserManual/5338/SB67148_CIB_Iss4.pdf

They all terminals ring at the same time and you can pick the call from the base or any terminal. If you have more than one phone line you can answer the different phone calls from the base or any terminal by selecting line 1-4. The ringing line blinks. It is a great system.

I think there are several to choose from - all fairly obnoxious - none "cute". Be aware that the ring and ring volume cannot be set for each handset. You also can't turn the ring off on one handset and leave it on others. You can however, set a different ring for incomming forwarded cell calls.

That seems odd, that one handset could differentiate incoming calls as mobile or land line. The base station has a call-block feature that allows you to store up to 30 phone numbers to be blocked - which would also block those same numbers to each handset. I use this feature to filter spammers like, "Hello, this is Rachael, this your last chance to receive lower interest rates on your Credit card, etc. " and to filter political calls that relentlessly seek donations. You might go into the Call Block option and make sure phone numbers are not blocked that you did not intend to block. The feature can be accessed from any handset under Initial Settings/Call Block. If your batteries are more than a couple of years old, I'd replace them with new AAA NI-MH that can be purchased anywhere - and you will probably find batteries now have higher amp/hour capacity than your original batteries. If that does not fix the problem, you can use the new batteries in any handset that gets weak quickly during longer phone calls. Have you checked to be sure the handset is not set to "sleep" or not ring during certain hours? I use this often on the handset near my bed. Calls will come in but ring only at the base station and other handsets. It's called Silent Mode in the menu under Initial Settings. Another option would be to call Panasonic and ask if the handsets have some sort of reset procedure, but I doubt that they have a reset. Sorry I don't have any definitive answer. I have six handsets and they have been 100% reliable. However, I replaced some of the older batteries when the handset acted weird or faded during longer conversations.

One unit will regulate the calls for the whole house. Please see my answer, "How to display caller ID on your phones with this device, December 30, 2013" for details on how to hook it up.

Real simple. There is a "pairing" feature which the user's manual walks you through. I have 3 handsets attached to a single base station. They all work great! Have been using them for about 18-months. No issues...

The phone rings. The screen in the middle lights up showing the caller id and indicating if the call is from YOUR connected cell phones OR your LAND line (if you have one).You pick up the phone -- you can press the answer button OR the speaker ON button. When finished you can press the end call button or simply hang up -- the phone disconnects when the other party hangs up.I use the answer and hang up buttons about 99% of the time -- it is easy. I don't know if the phone can be set to answer when you pick it up off of the cradle/charger -- but the documentation or on line will tell you.I love the integration of the cell and the land line into one.

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 think you can not have two calls going at the same time, but you can put a call on hold on one sim to answer for a call in the other one. And you keep both sim actives all the time to receive calls

Yes, it appears you can only use 2 handsets at a time and the third must remain in the base unit. See pg 20 in the Operating Instructions.

If your cordless phones work from a base unit, then just plug the base into the ATT unit. The other phones will work like they do now. That is what we do (we have 5 phones) and have not experienced any issues.

Each phone has the same info. that is Dir, Missed Calls, etc. Put the info. in 1 one handset and the whole system gets the info.

I'm not sure I understand your question... the phone and the base come together. I'm pretty sure it acts like an extension, so it you plug it into a jack in your den and you get dial tone, you'll get your calls like any other phone. I suggest your check with their website to make sure.

I have two cell phones (different numbers) as well as my original land-line connected to this system. When the Bluetooth signal is within range (+/- 75 feet of the base) all calls, to all numbers, ring the handsets. Therefore you can pick up any incoming call for any number, from any phone, including your cell phones (assuming the call was for one of the cell phone numbers. Land-line calls are obviously not routed through your cellular device). As for outgoing calls, once again, you can either call from your land-line or call from either of the two cell phones with no special requirements. Just pick up your phone and dial. No "unpairing" required whatsoever. Oh, and any incoming text message for your cell phones causes the system to ring (a different ring versus the "regular" ring) and announce "text message". Handy but i assume you can turn off that feature if you don't want to hear it. Hope that answers your question.

All of the phones have a speaker on them. The base station also has a speaker Periodically when we call long distance to family we use the speaker on whichever phone we had used/answered so that we can have everyone in the room participate during the call. HTH

I have a Panasonic 4 line wireless system and yes, all phones ring, just as if connected directly to the phone line. I had to get a standalone answering machine as the built-in answering machine on the wireless phone would not work as the answering machine connects to a separate jack on the Telebouncer. Once set however, it has been like a blessing from the almighty! I get one ring so I can capture callerid, then it stops unless the caller presses the number. Has brought much peace to the household!

Yes that is correct. Once you pair your cell to the base, you can use any handset to place a call on your cell by selecting Cell1 instead of Home on the keypad. You do not have a traditional dial tone but rather it is quiet while it dials using your cell. Hope this helps.

I have similar set-up, AT&Tphones; with 1 base and three cordless handsets. Blocker does work throughout the house. I would also say that approx 99.9 % of all calls are blocked but occasionally I get 1 call where the phone rings 1 time and stops.
