Good Friggin! Grief! I search for an hours to find a solution to this problem and Space Ace solved it. I cannot believe these dumb !!!@@@# at Philips don't have this anywhere online. Hopefully if I put: Problem: Philips VOIP8411B Handset won't Re-Register in this reply it will guide others to this solution. Press and hold page button on base station and then press register on handset. 3 Cheers Space Ace...3 Cheers.

Has it been registered? Check all connections. If not registered, unplug the base AC adapter. On the base, press and hold FIND on the base while you reconnect the adapter. On thenew handset, press and hold # until the display says handset registering (about 2 second).

Yes, it appears you can only use 2 handsets at a time and the third must remain in the base unit. See pg 20 in the Operating Instructions.

You must have one base station which comes with a phone set and you can purchase from 1 to 11 additional phones, total 12. Just order this item and two expansion phones to total 4. If you order two of this item you will have too many base stations. I have one base station and 4 expansion stations for a total of 5 phones in the house.

Sorry but we misplaced our instruction book so we are having to enter names and numbers into handset. I don'tthink this answers your questions but only one I have.

yes, you can use more handsets. both the basic unit w/four handsets and extras are readily available on e-bay.

Yes you can. Press Menu -> Settings -> Handset Name. You will have to do this with each handset. Good luck!

Uniden has a supply of all different systems and you can add many handsets to most of them. The phones I saw of theirs all had the ability to add at least 3. They also showed one with 5 additional handsets. As far as having speaker on the base, I think you would have to take the handset out of the base and hit speaker on the handset. It's plenty loud. Good luck! Pat T

You have to have a base to use the accessory hand sets. My base is a vtec cs6619. I put the new handset in the base and within a few seconds it beeped and was registered. It worked fine for me.

I am not sure I can answer your question. Your base would probably have to be exactly the same one as the new handsets use. If you already have this product, you can add additional handsets. For a definitive answer, contact VTECH customer support at their web-site. Thanks!

B. Bruce - If you have a DS6151 base, you can add DS6101 handsets, up to a max. of 12.

I don't recall seeing that option in the manual. As I registered each handset the names were, in order, Handset 1, Handset 2 and Handset 3. You might check the manual to be certain.

Like the others said, you also need the base unit. Ours came with two handsets, and I bought this extra handset unit so we'd have a total of 4 phones (the base unit - which is a phone/transmitter/data storage/etc) and three handsets which receive their signal from the base unit.

Yes, you can buy another set with main unit included, or just the handset. I have done both and it works fine either way. It's still cheaper to buy just the handset. In either case, you need to register the extra handset to the same main unit, so intercom calls would also work. If having two main units, you lose the intercom function and each main unit would take up an extra ethernet outlet from your wireless router.

No, not for this one, if you need additional handsets you have to purchase a different model that comes with extra handsets.You can only link the number of cell phones to the number of handsets you have or "connect & disconnect" cell phones that will be linked to the handsets

Yes...you can select: "ALL", "BASE", "Handset 1" or "Handset 2" or "Handset 3", etc. I don't think you can rename the handsets.

A base that takes 6 handsets. If you've replaced some already you will need to deregister the old ones
