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 unit does have two separate "plug-ins". The first is marked "L1-L2", which can be used for both lines, or only for L-1 (depending on the cable and how the jack is wired). The second is marked "L-2" and is for Line 2 only. I have used the base unit, plus five wireless handhelds, for over two years, and have not had any problems with the "Caller ID" program. To delete each individual "Caller ID", I have to use the delete program, but this clears the base unit and the five wireless handheldss. My family has been very happy with this two line system.

Yes indeed the phone has two separate line plug ins and the Caller ID stays up after you answered the call. Hope my answer to your questions were helpful.

Our phone only has one line. Perhaps there is a different model with two or more, but I am not aware of it.

You have to attach a standard phone cable to the wall jack. You can buy a splitter so that the phone and the unit uses the same wall jack; very cheap. The phone has no part in the process since the unit dials out to any number(s) you select. I have a portable phone for my house phone but as I said, it plays no role in the call out process. The unit works well after you understand the instructions.

Have not been in the room when call was incoming, but when I go in after a call the whole screen is lit up. The screen stays on if you take the call from another extension, even after you hang up, and you can review all incoming calls, even those missed because you were out, until you clear them from the memory. Review will show caller ID information so that you can check for missed calls or those answered on an extension phone.

it takes a normal phone cord. If you look at the tip you'll see it has 4 copper contacts. The middle two pins are one line, and the outer two pins are the second line. I say this because if you grab another phone cord to extend the phone from the wall plug, you'll need to make sure your longer cord has all 4 contacts. Fax machines usually come with only the two copper contacts and if you use a cord like this your second line won't have a connection. I say this because I had a customer do this and then blame me for screwing up the installation.

I have my answering machine first in line and the call block computer is after the answering machine. Using only the A list the caller ID is displayed. Only A list callers ring everything else goes to the answering machine after 5 rings(that is what I set the answering machine to).

The phones both have caller id and there is a "click" for the call waiting feature. I've had these phones for quite some time and they have been dependable.

The phone will work as a telephone. The caller ID and answering functions need the power cord. Also the ring without the external power is different. I just tested the phone with and without the power cord to check this answer.

The incoming number and caller ID are displayed when the phone rings and the number remains for a couple of seconds after answering the phone. After 2 or 3 seconds the incoming number is then replaced by a phone timer that shows the number of seconds the call has lasted... So while you are talking all that is displayed are called ID (If available) and the timer.

why would you? Makes no sense. It has 2 independent lines for 2 separate phone numbers.

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!

If the phone is new, the only reason I have found is extensive use with loud ring tones (set on max AND continuous ring tone until you answer the phone), large data use, etc. If its a used phone, the most likely issue is a battery near the end of its life. If none of these apply, there must be a power draw somehow-maybe a loose or faulty connection. ONE wAY TO CHECK THIS OUT IS TO CHARGE THE PHONE UP, PULL OUT THE BATTERY AND INSERT BACK IN THE PHONE AFTER A DAY. if THE BATTERY HAS DISCHARGED ITS AN OLD OR DEFECTIVE BATTERY. IF STILL HOLDS ITS CHARGE AFTER A DAY, ITS THE PHONE.

Neither - you just have to check the Caller ID to know if someone has called. I'm not that impressed with this phone at all. :(

No, but you can switch over to another call if you have the call waiting phone plan if that is what you mean by 2 lines.

No. Like Louis said you probably have caller ID. I have not been bothered by any of those idiots. Love my phone.

Bobby G., There are two phone plugs located on the side of the unit, one is labeled 'PHONE' the other is 'LINE'.from: Enrique Cuano.

Yes, Bob, you do. FYI This caller id did not last very long. My phone quit working and the phone people realized that it was a faulty caller id.I junked it and ordered a Bellsouth product. I have always had good results from their products.
