Hi all,
I would like all my phone jacks in my house wired into Vonage. I tried the info available here by doing the follownig:
1. Connected the WTP300 adapter to my cordless phone. It worked fine - i was able to make calls using Vonage. Then, i unplugged the adapter from the cordless phone. 2. Unplugged the jack connecting my house to the outside telephone line at the external Network Interface Connector 3. Connected my WTP300 phone adapter to a telephone jack in the master bedroom
But i didnt get any dial tone at any of the other jacks. So all I have is one cordless phone for the entire house served by Vonage.
Any ideas on what I can do to make all my jacks wired into Vonage?
Thanks. |

Hi there.
First thing I would do, and yes it's simple and obvious, is to try a different phone cable from the RTP to the house wiring. If that fails, we can try other things. Also, a picture of your NIU would help us, if you can get one on here. |

Also, when you plugged your Vonage adapter into the house phone jack, did the phone light on the adapter stay on? Was it steady or did it start flashing? |

Yes, that's the way it should be. A slow flash means you have voicemail, and a faster flash means a call is in progress. Had you gotten the fast flash when you plugged into the wiring it would indicate a short in the wiring or a phone left off the hook somewhere. |
