Arthur, I have my Pixma's telephone line on a splitter, a DSL line. One line to modem, another to MP830. (Base phone and answering machine is in another room; can't connect to printer) Receive Mode is set to Manual RX. But every time I call my number from my cell phone (still in testing mode!) the fax answers after a couple of rings. Can't talk. So I'm leaving it disconnected until we can figure out the setting. Any ideas?

So what you are saying is that when someone calls the house using a cell phone the panasonic phone blocks those calls? but allows land based phone calls to go through? Is it all all cell phone callers or just one or two? I never heard of that happening so not sure why the panasonic would be doing that because really it doesnt know what device on the far end is making the call.

Hi guys,So, I was successful in getting the drivers to work! Now, my question is, can I connect this box directly to a phone jack and be able to use Skype at ALL phones connected at various jacks in my house? If so, which connector on the D-Link box would I use?Thanks!E

I have Vonage and plugged my skype dual phone into the Vonage adapter and it works fine. You just need to use a telephone wire splitter for the phone wire on the Vonage unit. I am absolutely sold on Skype and will most likely be dropping Vonage altogether. I'm giving it a little more time to be sure (it's been about 2 months). I almost didn't attempt to use Skype because of the MagicJack horror that I tried first.

Yes, but you will need a digital, vs an analog, type phone plugged into it. You will then be able to make and receive both Skype and landline calls. Do it every day. Also, it will show whether it is a Skype call or a landline call. ColGilly

You can use as a WiFi phone.Magicjack app(magicApp) is available at itunes appstore and gives you unlimited calls/text wherever you have WiFi for $2/month or $15/year($1.25/month).You can call landlines and mobile numbers and text to mobile numbers. Many tablet/ipod touch owners are unaware they can use their device as a WiFi phone.It works like a speaker phone and if you want a private conversation,just plug in earbuds/headphones as the mic will still pick up your voice.No special headset needed. The app is free if you use magicjack home phone service for $3/month.Here is an amazon link for magicjack GO home phone device: http://www.amazon.com/magicJack-Digital-Includes-12-Months-K1103/dp/B00LN0OM14/ref=zg_bs_13431611_1

No you can't dial regular #. You can answer all incoming calls, but only dial 2. Wish it could dial out thru voice and had a way to flash other incoming calls. My Grandmother loves it. She talks on it all day like a regular phone... That is, if you call her and she's not already on the other line.

Raul, I don't see why not. It's a regular telephone with a Ethernet connector and a phone line connector.For local calls you can use the phone connector, for long distance you can use Skype or whatever service you wish.RegardsAlvaro

No. This device connects to your internet router, creating a circuit for your regular land line telephone to plug into. Skype has it's own application and/or browser plug-in, and doesn't need this device. I use Callcentric as the virtual telephone company. Pay as you go and much cheaper than other offerings.

Thanks for the interest. This is not a tablet with call function. This is a tablet that connects via wif and gsm for net browsing.You can make calls using skype app in it, but not as a cell phone. Thank you. KICKmobiles

Skype simply needs a connection to the internet; it doesn't care how you get it. If you already have WiFi available you are set. If you want to skype from somewhere that doesn't have WiFi that you can use, then you will need a phone service. I use WiFi for my iPad.

I don't get what u r doing. I will pick up if u r not home, but what if u pick the phone up and hear a fax tone, Can u send a code on the keypad to have the fax pick up while u r in another room?Can u use an answerphone to get voice messages?I used Norton Fax software. It was nice because it did Fax and Voice on the same line and put everything on your hard drive. I hoped hardware could do this without the PC.Is there any hope?

The dialer requires a land line to dial out of. Once the connection is made the host can then call any number that you program to the host. Including cell phones.

I use Skye for my international calls and Lingo (Lingo.com $7.95 per month) for my US calls. When I use Skype out the person I am calling is not getting a very loud signal in the US and I usally end up calling them on Lingo. I have not had a regular land line phone for more than 3 years. Skype to Skype calls are great.

Hi. This isn't responsable for controller the call it's only the appliance, but the Skype can make local calls, distance calls or international call. You always you dial to use (country number)+(state number)+(your number). Like 5511XXXXXXXX in my case. This not work for 911 calls. You will need use your cellphone for this.Regards

Thanks!I was concerned about the 400 box being compatable with an analog line.I have an analog switch to rout calls.I have a ADSL modem connected to the line before the switch to connect to the Internet.I am assuming that the incoming and outgoing skype calls would be digitally routed directly to and from the 400 handset by the 400 box. Using the 400 handset to place PSTN calls is convenience if it works but of little interest. I have a wireless network. I am thinking that a skype phone like the Netgear SPH200W WiFi Phone with Skype or similar might be a better solution. However, from what I have seen on the net they are not very mature.Any suggestions?
