(in particular calling line display) may function in the same way as with a standard analog telephone line. This does not cause the BTouch to malfunction. Several factors can cause a failure of specific features to function:...
The adapter used to convert Internet/cable telephony to analog telephony (usually supplied by the provider) may not forward the functions to connected telephones or may forward them in a non-analog format. If this happens, please check the BTouch on an analog fixed line and/or contact your Internet/cable telephony provider.
