Here Are Some Hints For When The Static Is - Uniden DCX400 User Manual

Here are some hints for when the static is...

on 1 handset or in 1 location:
- Check nearby for one of the common
interference sources.
- Try moving the handset away from a
suspected source, or try moving the
suspected source so it's not between
the handset and the base.
- Try moving closer to the base. There
is always more noise at the edges
of the base's range. If the handset
displays an Out of Range message,
you need to move closer to the base.
Installing a line fi lter or DSL fi lter
Sometimes, broadband Internet
services that use the telephone line
can interfere with phones. One of
these services−DSL−often causes
static on telephones. A DSL filter or
telephone line filter usually solves this problem. The technician who
installed your DSL service might have left some filters for you; if not,
call your DSL provider or look in any electronics store.
Plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and plug your phone's
base into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.
on all handsets or in all locations:
- Check near the base for the
source of interference.
- Try moving the base away from a
suspected source, or turn off the
source if possible.
- If the base has an adjustable
antenna, try raising the antenna
so it stands straight up.
- If you have any service that uses
the phone line, you might need a
filter (see below).
