This user guide will walk you through the basics of your Connected Voice service.
Making a call from your Connected Voice service is the same as placing a call from a traditional phone line. Simply pick up your handset and dial the number. Your call will be connected.
Receiving a call on your Connected Voice service is also the same as taking calls on a traditional phone line. When a call comes in, all handsets that are connected through your Connected Voice adapter will ring. Simply answer the phone.
1. Access your mailbox: To set up your voicemail, press *98 from your Connected Voice, or call your 10-digit Connected Voice number from another phone. This is how you can access your mailbox to check messages or make changes at any time. Voice prompts will guide you through the steps.
2. Create your PIN: It can be any number between 4 and 15 digits long. Be sure to make note of it, as you'll need it to access your messages in the future.
3. Record a name to identify your mailbox.
4. Choose a greeting: You can record your own or use one of the built-in greetings.
You can manage, activate, and deactivate the following features directly from your phone.
