Registration and deregistration Add and register handsets Before using a new GL2101-0 handset, make sure it is registered with an AT&T GL2101/GL2101-2 telephone system (purchased separately). These telephone systems can support up to five handsets. The handset(s) provided with your telephone system are already registered as HANDSET 1, and so forth. Additional handsets are assigned numbers in the sequential order they are registered (up to HANDSET 5).

Make sure the power cord is securely plugged in.
Appendix Troubleshooting The display shows No home line. I cannot get a dial tone. Try all the suggestions mentioned above.

Appendix Troubleshooting f f f If your phone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem, relocate your phone or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector. Relocate your phone to a higher location. The phone may have better reception when installed in a high area. Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a working telephone.
Appendix Troubleshooting f f f f f If the other phones in your home are having the same problem, contact your telephone service provider (charges might apply). Test a working phone at the phone jack. If another phone has the same problem, contact your telephone service provider (charges might apply). Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones, can cause interference with your cordless phone.
Appendix Troubleshooting My caller ID isn’t working. Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from your telephone service provider for this feature to work on your phone. The caller may not be calling from an area that supports caller ID. Both your telephone service provider and your caller’s telephone service provider must use caller ID compatible equipment.
Appendix Troubleshooting f f f Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB port on your computer. Do not plug it into a multiple port USB hub (USB splitter) that is not powered. In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own external power supply. If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional telephone service provider.
Appendix Troubleshooting Common cure for electronic equipment. If the telephone does not seem to be responding normally, try putting the cordless handset in the charger. If it does not fix the problem, do the following (in the order listed): 1. Disconnect the power to the telephone base. 2. Disconnect the cordless handset battery. 3. Wait a few minutes. 4. Connect power to the telephone base. 5. Completely remove the battery.
