Are you a new cable or VoIP subscriber?

If your answer is yes, the existing telephone jacks in your home may no longer work.

Your cable/VoIP service provider uses a different connection, separate from your old

traditional telephone service, to connect the modem/router/terminal adapter installed in

your home.

To allow all existing telephone jacks to work, contact your telephone service provider

for solutions, such as rewiring services (fees may apply).

If your answer is no, your existing telephone jacks will continue to work as normal.

Did you subscribe to voicemail service from your telephone

service provider?
