Are You A New Cable Or Voip Subscriber; Did You Subscribe To Voicemail Service From Your Telephone Service Provider - VTech DS6520-22 User Manual

Getting started

Are you a new cable or VoIP subscriber?

If your answer is yes, the existing telephone jacks in your home may no longer
work. Your cable/VoIP service provider uses a different connection, separate
from your old traditional telephone service, to connect the modem/router/terminal
adapter installed in your home.
To allow all existing telephone jacks to work, contact your telephone service
provider for solutions, such as rewiring services (fees may apply).
If your answer is no, your existing telephone jacks will continue to work as normal.
