dose the phone need two lines to work

I only use mine with one phone line. The only thing that I've noticed is that this causes the phone to display "L2 No Line" constantly while the LCD display is on the home screen. This isn't a problem, however, since the LCD display has multiple text lines. So I believe all of the other information is able to be displayed even while this message appears.

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.

I bought it for my sister in law and we set it up with only 1 line being used so I can't tell you for sure if it can handle 2 numbers or not. Sorry!

Yes, you can have two bases with the same two lines. I have two bases and four handsets. You can only link the handsets to one of the bases (which is all that is really necessary). I'm not sure how having two answering machines work as I don't use that feature.

No, it will not. That is really a function of the phone service you have. Whether you have one line or two lines, the phone company will see a "busy" on the line that is in use. Only if you have two lines, and the ability with your phone service to "call forward if busy", would a call to one line be able to be answered by this particular telephone on the second line.

To the best of my knowledge, no. I purchased this to use two phones on one line.

Yes, it does have two inputs for two seperate phone lines. The caller ID gets stored as long as you do not run out of battery (cell) inside.

The secondary phone does not need a phone line. The base for the secondary handset plugs into an electrical outlet which then charges the handset. The secondary handset auto syncs with the main base unit most likely via Bluetooth or whatever the wireless connection is that this system uses.

The phone connect to the cell phones through Bluetooth, so there should be no need to keep a land line. When any of the two cell phone rings, it shows cell on the this phone and you click that button rather than the usual on button which is used for land line.

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.

This is not a phone system that you add hand held phones two. It is nothing more than what it is; a two-line phone.

I am not a telephone serviceman, but my telephone has two lines to plug answering machine.

Yes my phone has 8 lines. it plugs into the handset line and if you have a newer phone there is also a headset jack for it as well.

Yes, there are two and they are synchronized to the same signal so it will work from one phone.

Did you ever get an answer to this? I am thinking of getting the unit and would like to set some handsets not to ring for the second line.

No. We have it hooked to our main line coming in to the business. But we are still happy with it. Maybe it's possible to use a splitter. I don't know. We don't use our second line but for fax or rair occasion of overflow of calls

Not sure what you mean by 2 lines but if you wonder if it handles call waiting it sure does. We are very satisfied with this phone system!
