Caller ID SkypeIn Issue: Has anyone had problems with the last two digits being cut off on incoming SkypeIn calls?

The caller ID probllem has nothing to do with netgear. Skype does not provide caller ID in the US. SCOTT

I finally junked it. I think it stops 800 numbers but not calls from regular area codes. I gave up my landline to stop the bother.

Telebounce doesn't block telephone numbers. You can set the machine not to ring your phone unless the calling party presses 1,2 or 3. Another option is your phone will ring once with the caller's id displayed, but the calling party still has to press a number. The teleboucer has reduced our calls from 40 to 50 a day to 4 maybe 5 calls. If you are using a voip line this is a necessity!

i got this product, installed using the latest skype (ver 5.3x) installed skypemate ver 5.0x (you gotta download it). I have windows vista home, running all the latest versions of skype and skypemate.My problems so far are:1. I hear music before I dial out and the music is there during conversations2. I have to use the computer to skypeout, i can't use the corded phone buttons3. When I call into the skype line, the phone doesn't ring, but I can answer and have conversation.Any help is appreciated

I haven't had any issues with Skype on it. The video call that I had seemed to run just fine.

The descriptions says "The SkypeIn option receives calls from non-Skype users" but on Skype shop this issue is not mentioned, which was a little odd since this is one important issue..

Thanks to everyone for the help on this. I am going to try the suggestions and see if that works. I'd really like to be able to do an outbound fax anytime and receive a fax by pressing the receive button.I fear that the fax picking up in the middle of the call may be due to using VOIP with Vonage as it will occasionally make a faxish noixe when a second call comes in. Will report back the results -- ping me on this list by adding a reply if I don't (i get an email on each reply).

I don't use Skype, so I really can't answer that. You might want to email the seller or something and ask.

HI, Page 10 of the manual. Your phone service and the callers phone service must have CID caller i d activated. If the caller suppressed their CID the phone shows "p". If the number could not be id' for other technical reasons the phone shows "o" or "e" Great price sorta weird euro phone! Have a great day!

Hi! You can hook up the BASE of this phone to a regular land line (with normal telephone jack), and then the VOIP841 handset can be used to make normal landline calls. You can switch between land line and Skype Internet calling.If you are asking if you can use another cordless phone with this product instead of the supplied cordless phone, the answer is NO.If you are already subscribing to caller ID on your landline service, then YES this phone will show you the caller ID. But not if you are not subscribing to caller ID.

While I cannot answer your question regarding VOIP, I can tell you that had my housekeeper not thrown the box out for this phone I would have returned it. When I dial a number, more times than not I get a recording that the number cannot be completed as dialed. However, if I then push Redial, the number is picked up as I originally put it in. I would not recommend this phone.

Perhaps you have a bad unit. My units work fine though hard to clear all calls. I have to continually push the review arrows and finally the last number called will show. Have not had the all 8's on the two units I have in service.

I don't use Skype, so I don't know, but I'd go to manage apps and click on Skype and hit clear data then try it againIt should work

Hi John, I agree with the others, you can use as many as you need, but if you use only one Skype account you will receive simultaneous calls in all of them. When someone call my Online Skype Number I can answer the call with the Free Talk or with my Skype (cell phone or notebook), it's up to me. I hope it can help you.
